As the title says, I was wondering how to keep Linux File permissions during backup and restoring them during a restore. I am not just talking the rwx attributes but also the (<user>:<Group>) permissions.
The Files we are backing up and restoring are in a windows and Linux network enviroment and as such I setup CIFS and NFS on a share. I can backup/restore fine and linux and windows can still both access it...however the permissions change to <root>:<root>. I tried googling and nothing usefull comes up. Was hoping someone here could answer this for me or point me to an article that explains it ELI5(ish) or even ELI15 LOL.
