Hi, I have 2 linux machines, SOURCE and DEST on a network. I create some snapshots of the file structure on SOURCE and these snapshots have extended attributes. I want to copy the snapshots from SOURCE over to DEST over the network, but I don't want to lose the information on the extended attributes. I don't think that rsync supports this so I was wondering if anyone knew of a protocol that does. If I have to modify the source code to allow the preservation of EA's, where would i get started? If anyone has any suggestions or can direct me to some helpful resources, please let me know. I could use some help on this matter. If there is another protocol that can support this file copy + preservation of EA's, please let me know. Thanks, Eric
