Shawn,

uname -a shows

SunOS pergamum 5.11 snv_111b i86pc i386 i86pc

and I looked at the manual again and found it, I searched earlier for -p in the man page and somehow I got past it that it reached the end of file without finding. Sorry about that.

Thank you.

I am currently trying to move my users home directories to a opensolaris server. Right now whenever I do any backups on my linux machines I can keep permissions set with the -p flag to rsync. The Opensolaris rsync man shows no -p? I know once I get the files onto the opensolaris box that zfs will make my backups much easier, but is it possible to get the files there without having to reset the permissions by hand?

Which build/version of OpenSolaris are you running?

I'm on build 122, and this shows in the man page for rsync:

      -p, --perms                 preserve permissions

Cheers,
