Hi,

I'm trying to rescue a guy's server.  It has a couple of hundred accounts on it.  I
ran this script from kbob:
(cd ${SOURCE}; /bin/tar cvf - .) | (cd ${DESTIN}; /bin/tar xvfp -)

It isn't keeping the ownership of the source.  Can someone come up with a quick and
dirty way of reading /etc/passwd and assiging the original permissions to
/home/$USER ?  Please?  There are a hand full of groups but I can reset that as it
becomes an issue.  That is unless setting the group permission is easy too.

Oh yes, this is Redhat 6.1
Thanks

The other Bob
