hi,
i copied a harddisk with tar (kind of tar -c -f - | tar -x -f - -C
/copy...) and lost a lot of accessinformation. it seems, that the
umask dropped all the rights for writing for group and other. shure i
didn't read the manual and thi sbehavier may be a feature, not a bug.
but now i've got a debian system with wrong access rights. i could fix
/dev, cause MAKEDEV does this. now im looking for a similar skript for
the other dirs. i think it would be importand to check those access
rights from time to time. kind of konsistency check on files and
dirs especially in /var would be nice.
best regards,
michael
