Hello, I’m using « tar (GNU tar) 1.15.1” on
Linux , and it seems that the owner option is not working : I try to do the following command (as a root
user) : tar -xvf livre_20120221.tar --no-same-owner
--owner=wwwrun --group=www But, when the files are extracted, they all
have root:root privileges (user:group) and so, I need to use the chown command. This is not a big problem, but I would like
to know if this is a bug or if I did not understand the syntax. Or may be this is due to the fact that this
wwwrun user is not a “real” user : in passwd file : wwwrun:x:30:8:WWW daemon
apache:/var/lib/wwwrun:/bin/false Thanks PS : I’m writing to this address because at
the end of the tar description, the following sentence is shown : Report bugs to <address@hidden>. _____________________________________ Flavien Chignardet C.C.V.R.P Service exploitation 7-9 rue Frédérick LEMAÎTRE 75971 PARIS Cedex 20 Tel : 01 40 33 77 20 Fax : 01 47 97 75 44 _____________________________________ If you cannot convince them, confuse
