I just discovered rdiff-backup and I am trying go get it to synch while preserving ACL's. I have 2 machine's running FC4 and on both machines I mounted the data partition with the acl option.

Hoever when I do something similar like:

rdiff-backup --never-drop-acls /etc/samba/data address@hidden::/etc/data/samba

It stops and complains that the remote filesystem does not support
ACL's, but like I said it does support ACL's. When I omit the
--never-drop-acls option it works just fine. Afterwards I am able to
set ACL's on the backup machine using setfacl.


Try running with -v4, it'll tell you which sides it thinks support
ACLs.  Do you have the pylibacl python module installed on both sides?

Thanks! That did the trick! :)

I like this script!
