by Hello,
I am running a UN*X system and need to back up some root
directory files in order to perform an OS upgrade. The
problem I am having is that I can send the stuff to tape as
'gross' (me), but retrieving the archive is a problem. If I
run my archive/unarchive script as 'gross' on my machine, I
don't have proper permissions to restore the root directory
files. If I log in as 'root' and run my script, the rsh
command fails (I'm not root on the remote machine). Is
there some simple way of solving this problem?
