The safest method is to adjust permissions directly with the correct syntax. Using `chown` recursively ensures proper ownership across the folder structure. Your approach is close but needs slight refinement for security and reliability.

You might consider using chown -R justin:www-data followed by chmod -R 770. This sets ownership while permitting the www-group full permissions. Running these commands likely requires root privileges, so you could use sudo bash or prepend sudo to them.
