Try do a normal restore ... in the restore command specify '-volinfo
-replace=no' as part of you parameters and you should be fine.  The
rights should be restored but the file not replaced if it exists.

I have a Novell server that the  file ownership rights/ attributes have
been lost, however the files are still in place.
Is there a way to just restore the files attribute without restoring the
file or the directories?
