I had a quick look for an answer to what I'd presume is a common Q but failed so wondering if somebody here would point me in the right direction, please & thanks?!
I wish to use rsync to backup users' home dirs from machineA (Debian) to machineB (Fedora). I have a script, say backup.sh, in my own home dir and linked to from /etc/cron.daily and have set up the ssh keys so [EMAIL PROTECTED] can rsync to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In testing the script is run and files are transferred. However, they are owned by localUser (of machineB) not of each user on machineA. I have tried various rsync options (--perms) but without joy. Can somebody advise me which flags I require?
