Toomas,
Amanda 3.3.6 will have a new ambsdtar application that use the bsd tar
program to back up with ACLs.

Hello!
This first FreeBSD 10 server is also my first encounter with
filesystem ACLs. As thousands of Amanda users before me, I discovered
that GNU tar doesn't back up ACLs and star is often recommended as an
alternative which does. Only thing is, the star port doesn't want to
build on FreeBSD 10 amd64. Or more precisely, smake, which is required
to build star, does not build. Seems like it's been this way for quite
a while and nobody has fixed the situation.
Before I spend too much time trying to fix it myself, I'd like to find
out if there is perhaps an alternative solution that I'm missing. So,
if anyone has a success story about backing up filesystem ACLs on
FreeBSD 10 amd64 (with Amanda, of course), I'm all ears :)
Regards,
