The latest stable release of rsync is 2.6.9, and it comes with a patch that adds support for -X ( patches/xattrs.diff ). The source package is at: http://rsync.samba.org/ftp/rsync/rsync-2.6.9.tar.gz Or you might like Fedora 7's RPM of an rsync 2.6.9 binary patched with ACL and extended attribute support: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/7/Fedora/i386/os/Fedora/rsync-2.6.9-2.fc7.i386.rpm Note that -X works only if the rsyncs on both ends of the copy support it.
