For files to be hard-linked together, they must be exactly the same in all preserved attributes. If you previously ran the script as a normal user, some files were probably created with either the wrong user or the wrong group from the originals (compared with what would be produced by a run as root). I would assume that this would solve itself going forward because the root-run files would match other root-run files. ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
