I did a search and found some really old topics on this, but nothing recent. What I want to know is if there is a way in the Linux version of BC to maintain the owner and group on files and directories when mirroring filesystems. I am migrating directories from an old NAS to a new one, and I need that information to be retained. Any assistance would be appreciated.
At this point, when copying or mirroring a directory after finding all the differences, the files are copied over, but the owner and group is assigned as whatever user I am logged in as (usually root). This is odd since if I open two different directories on two different NAS units, and simply copy the files in the Unix GUI, the owner, group, and permissions are all retained.
