Hi Matthias;

I have issues with two Vista clients also. I get the files restored to 
the right folder but the target folder is strangely now shared. 
Permissions are reset to a mess with Everyone Full Control and have no 
previous Owner. I have not been able to figure this out for sometime now 
so I have resorted to restoring files to .tar or .zip and expanding to 
copy them back to the necessary folders so perms get reset by parent.

It appears either Cygwin rsync or rsyncd is mangling the original ACL or 
cannot read it upon restore. The XFer log indicates a correct permission 
& group ownership when it is backed up.

  Allen...
