anyone know more about chown?

I was asked to change owners of files on Linux for a shared hosting client and to use the following command:

chown R username:username {path to file}

I normally run this:

chown username {path to file}

I tried running his command and it didn't work so I ran mine and it worked. He's happy but I must know more!

was this guy smoking something or was he thinking FreeBSD or another OS?

I thumbed through the pocket linux book and found nothing
