I can't comment on vinum issues, but "cp -pR" (-P is default) doesn't handle stuff like file attributes, AFAIK. Check, but I think 4.11 has the new FreeBSD "tar" (not "gtar") which is the think to use if you can't use dump/restore. Read your manual, but it's something like: tar cf - --one-file-system -C $SRCDIR . | tar xkpPf - -C $DSTDIR (I esp. wonder about "kpP".) _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
