I am trying to move/copy files from one NFS mounted volume to a local volume. These are files owned by a variety of users but when moved the ownership is not carried with the file. So when I move the files as root, the ownership of the new files is changed from the original owner to root and and mode is changed to 664. The NFS server is novell with Netware NFS (hence the need to move the files). I have tried to tar the files first (with -p) and have tried dump as well. Any ideas on how I can move these files and still keep the permissions? Peace, Blake To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
