I tried that earlier to no avail: rclient01>id uid=0(root) gid=1(other) rclient01>rsync -avpz yam02::test /var/tmp/rsync_test rclient01>ls -al /var/tmp/rsync_test total 12 drwxr-xr-x 3 rwalkup visitor 512 Oct 17 15:01 . drwxrwxrwt 6 sys sys 1536 Oct 17 15:00 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 rwalkup visitor 79 Mar 13 2001 hosts drwxr-xr-x 3 rwalkup visitor 512 Mar 13 2001 inet -rw-r--r-- 1 rwalkup visitor 330 Mar 21 2001 vfstab Regards, Ron
