I want the UNIX file ownership changed, but nothing else. ;-)
If you'll flip the qtree to ntfs, do the chown, you will end up with ACLs. What do you want the files to be at the end - with or without ACLs ?
This choice of action is moot anyway, as I discovered last night (and Mark Muhlestein also mentioned in private) that you cannot chown/chmod files on an ntfs-style qtree anyway. Sounds like the general solution is to record ACLs, chown, restore ACLs.
