ownership: you're not root, therefore can't create things belonging to other users.
If you set -u and -p, it will, if you're root.
of course it doesn't hapen in ufsdump. can you restore a ufsdump as non-root? (I
don't know, but i'll bet that if you do, files belong to only you) Tar and cpio keep
owners too. In any of those archiver cases, you're creating a file (or data on a
device) containing user info, not creating the actual files. rsync is like restoring
a tar. if you restore as root, ownerships are kept. if not, they're not.

Subject: Re: rsync gives ld.so.1 error
Classification:
Hi
Iam working on Solaris Platform.
Yes thats what was exactly happening. Hence the only solution I could think
of was compiling rsync on 2.5.1 instaed. Now rsync works fine.
The only other Problem I am facing is.
As rsync is in my home directory It has my account permissions. Owner ,
group
when I rsync a directory which belongs to a different user . It does
srchive it , But the owner and group is set to my account. This does not
happen in ufsdump.
Any help in this regard.
I feel there are not sufficient DOCS on rsync. Any URL where there are
adequate DOCS.
Thanks for your help.
