The file you would need is /etc/passwd. I wouldn't bother, though. The owners that you see with the ls command are translated from the uid (user id) that is actually stored to the string representing that owner if one exists. What is stored with the file is the same though.

Is it possible to get the right ownerships by copying the data from /etc/shadow to the backupping server(*in debian)? I guess that file holds the information for the users. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Liity nyt uuteen Windows Live Messenger perheeseen Klikkaa! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Dirvish mailing list [email protected] http://www.dirvish.org/mailman/listinfo/dirvish
