Hi, while your Q is somewhat OT, here some ideas: * use star or any other ACL awar tar replacement * use a proper backup program, like Arkeia (free for 1 server) * NFS can do ACLs, if properly patched. For example all SuSE systems do that very fine. * backup files and ACLs separately (tar and getfacl/setfacl). * use rsync with the ACL patch (http://lists.samba.org/archive/rsync/2004-May/009466.html) * use Mondo Rescue (www.mondorescue.org), it does ACLs
HTH, Schlomo PS: Mounting anything but NFS will give you suboptimal performance, anyway.
