The GNU tar in RHEL 5 seems to have been patched to allow backing up
ACLs and XATTRs.
Has anyone actually tried using this new feature in GNU tar and
been successful in restoring the ACLs/XATTRs?

New to list, looking for a good solution to backing up SELinux systems with

The reference in the Amanda documentation regarding SELinux xattrs is a
rather cryptic one-liner
The problem is that amanda relies upon GNU tar which is not able to back up
extended attributes, including ACL's as well as SELinux ones.
