Re: Saving ACL's

[Olivier Tarnus <olivier.tarnus@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

A way of doing it is saving acls in a file that will be saved with datas.
You can produce this file really efficiently with getfacl and the magic
recursive option :-)

I wrote on the the subject recently in rsync mail list since i need to 
synchronize acls between 2 fileservers and rsync don't support 
them actually. Here you'll find more:

But if you just want du dump the full filesystem on tapes, xfsdump is
definitively your solution.
