Hi Everyone
I'm trying to back up /home to an external hard drive (maxtor usb) and
wanted to keep the file permissions but when I do a
cp -ar /home /media/usb it complains about not being able to do the
permissions and they all go across as root instead.
Anyone know where I'm going wrong?
Thanks
Bryan
rsync may also be of some assistance...
