Ownership and permissons?

[Paul v. d. V. <pa...@va...>]

Hello,

When I encrypt (as root) a file what's owned by "paul", then the
ownership becomes "root". After decryption (as root) the ownership is
still root...

Will rsyncrypto change the ownership of the files?

And will it change the permissions?

I would like to do a full system backup with rsyncrypto, but I need to
keep the ownership and permissions.

With regards,
Paul van der Vlis.
