I map a windows share to linux box by using smb

 /bin/mount -t smbfs -o username=name,password=mypass
 //windoze/data    /mnt/data

 and try to backup  /home

 rsync  -av /home /mnt/data/


 The problem is i can not preseve owner and group, every file  is changed
 to belong to root, i guess this is because only root have w right to
 /mnt/data. But i want preserve the owner and group info
 Is there a solution for that? or how can i back up /home to a windows
 box and preserve user info? (with or without rsync)

 Thanks

 J.P.
