Backups

There is no direct way of correctly backing up your data with your ACLs as 
most backup software does not take care of ACLs.
Nevertheless, there's a workaround: Install the Debian package "acl" (if 
not already done). It provides the programs getfacl and setfacl. These can 
be used to get the current ACLs respectively change them or set new ones.
(The most basic commands are shown at 
http://acl.bestbits.at/about-acl.html:
getfacl *
setfacl -m u:ursula:rw file1
A more complete example can be found here.)

>From http://acl.bestbits.at/using.html:

Backing up:
Choose whether you want to back up all your system's ACLs to one file, or 
whether you want several split lists. (I chose to back up ACLs separately 
for each filesystem, as it should be a bit easier to recover from a fatal 
system crash). For each directory tree you want to back up, issue a 
command like the following:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home # getfacl -R --skip-base . > backup.acl
The `--skip-base' option excludes all files that only have the three base 
ACL entries (user, group and other). You do not need to back these up 
separately as the base ACL entries correspond to the file mode permission 
bits, which I assume your backup utility handles already. The `-R' option 
tells getfacl to recurse into subdirectories.

Restoring:
The data written to the backup file is the same output you are used to 
from using getfacl all the time. The setfacl utility is able to parse this 
output, and restore all the all permissions (including the owner and 
owning group, if you have privilege to change these). For restoring the 
backup from above, type:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home # setfacl --restore=backup.acl

Personal add-on:
The package "acl" also provides "chacl" which is an SGI program in order 
to change ACLs.
"chacl -l" and "chacl -r" are Linux-only options and might also do 
something similar to the backup process described above.

Hello,

the most important news first: After a very long time, we have a backup
utility that supports Access Control Lists. J"org Schilling
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> has added Access Control List support to his
tar/pax clone called Star. Read more about this on our Web site,
<http://acl/bestbits.at/>.

Si cautand pe freshmeat.net (the one and only) star am gasit:

About:
Star is a very fast, POSIX-compliant tar archiver. It reads and writes 
POSIX compliant tar archives as well as non-POSIX GNU tar archives. Star 
is the first free POSIX.1-2001 compliant tar implementation. It saves many 
files together into a single tape or disk archive, and can restore 
individual files from the archive. It includes command line interfaces for 
the "tar", "Sun-Tar", "cpio", "pax" and "gnutar" cmdline syntax. It 
includes a FIFO for speed, a pattern matcher, multi-volume support, the 
ability to archive sparse files and ACLs, the ability to archive extended 
file flags, automatic archive format detection, automatic byte order 
recognition, automatic archive compression/decompression, remote archives, 
and special features that allow star to be used for full and incremental 
backups. It includes the only known platform independent "rmt" server 
program that hides Linux incompatibilities. The "rmt" server from the star 
package implements all Sun/GNU/Schily/BSD enhancements and allows any 
"rmt" client from any OS to contact any OS as server.
