If chown is filled with a variable ( chown ("myfile", $uid) the uid will be looked up through pwget_uid.
So if you need to set a non existing uid use inval($uid).
(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

Приклад #1 Simple chown() usage
<?php
// File name and username to use
$file_name= "foo.php";
$path = "/home/sites/php.net/public_html/sandbox/" . $file_name ;
$user_name = "root";
// Set the user
chown($path, $user_name);
// Check the result
$stat = stat($path);
print_r(posix_getpwuid($stat['uid']));
?>
Поданий вище приклад виведе щось схоже на:
Array ( [name] => root [passwd] => x [uid] => 0 [gid] => 0 [gecos] => root [dir] => /root [shell] => /bin/bash )
Зауваження: Ця функція незастосовна для роботи з віддаленими файлами, оскільки файл повинен бути доступним через файлову систему сервера.
Зауваження: On Windows, this function fails silently when applied on a regular file.
