Check your acl package to see if it supports recursive fetch/restore. If 
it does, just before dump time, do a recursive getfacl , redirected to a 
file. After a tar restore, you can use your listed acls file to restore 
the acls.

I currently don't use this method ( on RH7.3) , but I'm headed that way.

On FreeBSD 5.0 with UFS2 + ACLs, what is my best method for backing up my
ACLs along with my files?

I am only experimenting with Amanda at this point, but it seems to use the
native tar utility, however tar does not support the backing up of ACLs.
Can anyone show me what I need to do?


Regards,
