Linux install instruction error

in the page
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBIZ/How+to+run+OFBiz+as+a+Service
there is a line
useradd -m ofbizchown -R ofbiz /opt/ofbizchmod 700 /opt/ofbiz

the -R is not supported in Fedora
can someone give what that was suppose to mean so I can change it.
thanks

Is there a space between "ofbiz" and "chown"?  It should mean something like
"add the user ofbiz" and then recursively "-R" change the ownership for the
new user "ofbiz".

I'm not running Fedora but the command should work in any linux install.
