My quick and dirty way to it is to run a cron on the backup server that chowns incoming files to another user (with a few refinements, like preventing exec, etc). But I'd definitely like something more solid.
- agj 14y agoYou should look into a tool that stores meta information on the backup files, such as rdiff-backup. Manually restoring ownership/permissions from a backup is probably tiring.
- Wilya 14y agoI backup (and chown) archives, not directly the files, so restoring the permissions isn't much of an issue. Sorry, was unclear :s
