I am not subscribed to the devel list, so if someone would forward this I would appreciate it. The website says to submit it to both the users and devel lists. Thanks.
Item 1: Restore proper ownership and permissions to created directories Origin: Mark Nienberg Date: 26 January 2010 What: Currently the only way to get bacula to restore directory ownership and permissions is to select a directory (not a file) to be restored and to use Replace=Always. Using Replace=Never or selecting a file (not a directory) to restore results in incorrect ownership and permission on any directories that bacula has to create above the level of the restored object. Why: It is confusing to find the file system in a different state after a restore. Users generally expect the directories to match the backed-up state. Notes: The bug report http://bugs.bacula.org/view.php?id=1444 is not entirely correct. Additional testing shows that results are different when files are marked for restore as opposed to directories. The bug report indicated that the behavior was specific to Replace=Never, but in fact the same thing happens with Replace=Always when a file is restored. -- Mark Nienberg Sent from an invalid address.
