[Samba] ACLs - backup and restore

[Felipe]

Thanks for the link, Lee. I'm testing "star" but I didn't find many
informations about it..

I used this way to backup my files:

[root at srv1 shares]# star -c -Hexustar -acl -C /home/shares/data/ .
f=/home/tmp/backup2.tgz
star: 2 blocks + 0 bytes (total of 20480 bytes = 20.00k).

And this way to restore:

[root at srv1 shares]# star -xp -acl -C /home/shares/data/ f=/home/tmp/backup2.tgz
star: current './' newer.
star: current 'publica/' newer.
star: current 'felipe/' newer.
star: current 'felipe/teste/' newer.
star: current 'felipe/teste.txt' newer.
star: current 'felipe/aazevedo/' newer.
star: 2 blocks + 0 bytes (total of 20480 bytes = 20.00k).

But it didn't restore the acls of my files and folders.. Do anybody
know what I'm doing wrong?

thanks!

regards,
Felipe.
