I'm using a script that does this:
/usr/local/bin/rsync -tpv --files-from=/home/admin/bin/list_of_files / /home/admin/configuration/
I can't get the permissions on the files to stick, when the files are written they get root as owner. I run the script as root.
Secondly I would like to reverse the sync so that I can move the directory configuration to another machine and make rsync copy the files from there and owerwrite the original files on the system.
