I'm trying to backup all the home directories using the following
command (as root):

tar -cvzf home_$(date '+%d_%m_%Y').tar.gz /home

But, some files are not backed up due to permission denied. I thought
the the root user had access to everything - obniously wromng there!

Anyway, how can I successfully backup all the files?

Thanks
