I have an issue using BC4 as root.
I execute the application as root so I can copy a folder containing root ownership files (as well as my user ownership) to a backup directory on an external drive.
However, all the files in the folder - regardless of ownership - are copied over as root.
I want the files copied over to have the existing ownership, and those as root, to be copied as such.
Is there a setting I could turn on/off to fix this issue.
It seems that the file ownership is being ignored when running as root!!!
