This flag "preserve permissions". The permissions are alright currently. The problem is that a user on XP box ssh'es to the Debian box (and becomes a Debian user) and then fails to browse the backups of the XP box which are saved on the Debian box because the XP backups' uid and gids do not match with Debian users'. -- Please reply to this list only.
