In fact, I restored to ANOTHER server. But I taught that the files
woule come out with a numeric uid/gid when I do an ls -l. Instead they
belong to root. Maybe gnutar does this when it cannot find the
original user/group ???
I got such behavior when writing on an NFS mounted directory,
but there the owner was left to "nobody", because I restored as
root (=nobody over NFS).
When I try with a little gnutar file, I do get the original
numerical userid.
What OS is this? What gnutar version?
