Hello,

Can someone tell me what the problem is here. I am doing an rsync on a
sendmail spool directory to a folder that is a samba mount. Why is rsync
trying to change owner? Does it have to?

I tried manually changing owner (as root) on a file that is sitting on
the samba mount and I got the same operation not permitted error. Does
anybody know why this is? Or do I need to ask in a samba mailling list.

Here is the error:

chown var/spool/mail/[EMAIL PROTECTED] : Operation not permitted
chown var/spool/mail/[EMAIL PROTECTED]  : Operation not permitted
chown var/spool/mail/[EMAIL PROTECTED]  : Operation not permitted
chown var/spool/mail/[EMAIL PROTECTED]  : Operation not permitted

Thanks,
Max
