- Subject: restoring facls after restore from tar
Hello,
I just restored an instance of cygwin from a tarball that had been created
with "tar -cf - /cygdrive/c/cygwin". Everything worked fine except sshd
(the only service that I run). The problem turned out to be that file
access control lists needed to be set on cygrunsrv and sshd. Indeed, none
of the facls in /bin and /usr/sbin were restored. I set all files in /bin
and /sbin to have the following acl:
user::rwx
group::r-x
group:root:rwx
group:SYSTEM:rwx
mask:rwx
other:---
And, now, sshd starts fine.
First question: am I missing anything that will bite me?
Second question: how can I backup facls as part of a tar backup and
restore them?
Thanks,
Dick
