Rsync doesn't seem to be able to preserve permission bits/flags in Cygwin
Hi: I'm using the following arguments to rsync when backing up, and yet the flags are not preserved when I copy: % rsync -aP <options deleted> Nancy at macki /cygdrive/c/Documents and Settings/Nancy/My Documents $ ls -al z1.jpg -rwxr-xr-x+ 1 Nancy None 118258 Aug 29 2011 z1.jpg Nancy at macki /cygdrive/f/macki/back-2012-06-04T16:57:38/Nancy/My Documents $ ls -al z1.jpg -rw-r--r-- 1 Nancy None 118258 Aug 29 2011 z1.jpg I was wondering if this is common with Cygwin. The NAS is connected using CIFS. Thanks, -Clint
