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...


I your Maxtor filesystem FAT32 ?

Regards,

John
