That's what my current patch does -- it discards any system namespace attributes. If the receiver is not running as root (or with --super) then we only try to set user attributes. This allows, for instance, the security namespace to be synchronized when running as root When running as a system that only has a user namespace, we store other namespaces in our "rsync." hierarchy. When running as fake-root, we do the same thing. So, I think the current code has a good solution for what it should do with the various namespaces, OS types, and options. ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
