Every file in the backup has group `unknown' instead of the group in the original filesystem.
In my case, the problem was that on some occasion I had accidentally run psync with sudo, rather than from the root crontab. Once the destination files had bogus group IDs, nothing would help except cleaning the partition and running psync to an empty partition as root (su -). Seems fine now.Another possibility that the groups are not preserved is that the use privilege when psync was run was insufficient (I suspect this is more likely). Did you 'sudo'?I've also been having this problem. Part of it, but I'm not yet convinced all, is that my source volumes mistakenly had their "Ignore ownership on this volume" checked (Info window for the volume).
