I know this, but I am moving data from a Windows server to Samba i.e. I have to copy files preserving the creation times and then set up the access rights. And as I tought that s goes with x, and there is not way (well, as least from what I know) to recursievly set the s just to directories (as with the X) I had no solution. Well, seting up the s to the base dir before replicating data should have worked, but I just didn't think enough. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
