    The author determines a finite field-dependent BRS transformation that connects the Yang-Mills path integrals with the Faddeev-Popov effective actions for an arbitrary pair of gauges \(F\) and \(F'\). If is established a result that relates an arbitrary Green function (either a primary one or that of an operator) in an arbitrary gauge \(F^\prime\) to those in gauge \(F\) that are compatible to the ones in gauge \(F\) by its construction. This is possible, since the construction preserves expectation values of gauge-invariant observables. Furthermore, there are developed the results for connecting the Green functions in planar gauges to those in Landau gauge and for connecting the vacuum expectation of gauge-invariant observable in planar gauges, to those in Lorentz gauges.
