Could anyone recommend a good command line method (or point me to a previous discussion topic) for globally finding and replacing file ownership ?

man find

Using `find` you can search the filesystems for his files and change them.

If they're all in one directory (or a few) you can just `sudo chmod -R newuser:newgroup /dir/`
