to preserve Mac OS X ACL's and extended attributes you have to be rsyncing to another Mac or at least a volume formatted with HFS+. If your rsync server is not a Mac and the HFS+ partition does not have ACL's turned on then the ACL's and extended attributes won't be copied.

On server, rsyncd.conf looks like this (modules are defined but not listed below): cat /etc/rsyncd.conf secrets file = /etc/rsyncd.secrets read only = no list = yes uid = root gid = wheel On client am using -ApXrvvhog option and here are some errors am getting: rsync: pack_smb_acl sys_acl_set_info(): Operation not supported (45) rsync: pack_smb_acl sys_acl_set_info(): Invalid argument (22) rsync: pack_smb_acl sys_acl_set_info(): Invalid argument (22) rsync: set_acl: sys_acl_set_file(New Fonts/Feb 6/.TC-Black.bmap.2Z6Ex6, ACL_TYPE_EXTENDED): Invalid argument (22) Files do get copied properly but ACLs are lost. Any way to fix this? :) -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/rsync-3.0.6-ACLs-under-MacOS-10.4-tp23544452p23544452.html Sent from the Samba - rsync mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
