I'm trying to use rsync to backup a whole system from one machine to another over SSH. I'd like to retain the permissions and groups so I can recover part of the directory. The problem is, the machines are both set up to prohibit root logins over SSH (for security), and of course rsync can't set the owners on files if it's not root. Is it possible? What's the right way to do this? Thanks in advance.
