Java doesn't know the Unix concept of permissions, so there is no easy way to determine the permissions while building the tar file. One could spawn a stat(1) for each file on Unix systems but this sounds cumbersome to me. MA> 2) Copydir will not copy an empty subdirectory. Use Mkdir instead? Seriously, this could be done.

OK, let's avoid a flame war, send a patch to make that an attribute and I'll commit it. Stefan
