Is there a trick to copy files via smbfs and keep uid/gid/permissions? Usually uid/gid/permission of a transfered file depends on the uid used when mounting the remote share. But maybe there is a trick/patch whatever ...
background: I'd like to use a linux-based NAS to backup loads of files *including their permissions and uid/gid*. The NAS supports NFS (which can do what I want) but the NFS-connections breaks all the time. So smbfs/cifs is my available option. * I need to backup the files on a per-file-base (and not in a tar-container) to make the backup-files easily and fast accessible from any thinkable client. * rsync via ssh would be my last option, but ssh has lot of overhead and invokes a key-managment-strategy for automatic backup thnx, peter -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
