Running rawhide.
I use "rsync" to backup my system to a USB hard drive.
I also ntfs-3g mount a WinXP partition to '/mnt/windows' on boot, and
I use the above rsync to back that up as well.
Adding '-xattrs' to the argument list for rsync seems to produce scads
of the following (I'm guessing one for each file in the ntfs-3g file
system ):
rsync: rsync_xal_clear:
lremovexattr("mnt/windows/WINDOWS/twain_32/wiatwain.ds","security.selinux")
failed: Permission denied (13)
rsync: rsync_xal_clear:
lremovexattr("mnt/windows/temp","security.selinux") failed: Permission
denied (13)
rsync: rsync_xal_clear:
lremovexattr("mnt/windows/temp/setup.log","security.selinux") failed:
Permission denied (13)
Destination fs i ext4dev.
When mounted, all the files in /mnt/windows have type: fusefs_t. When
rsych'ed, the type on the ext4 fs is file_t.
Running 'getfatttr -d' on the source files produces, for example:
[root@localhost temp]# getfattr -d *
getfattr: setup.log: Operation not supported
[root@localhost temp]#
On the destination fs, result is
[root@localhost temp]# getfattr -d *
[root@localhost temp]#
This something due to the way I mounted the ntfs-3g fs? The way I run
rsync? Other?
thanks,
tom
