[NBLUG/talk] Moving permissions

[Mark Street]

A move or a copy?  Same computer?  The question is vague.  Are you taking 
"user and group ownership" into account as well as file permissions or just 
concerned with file permissions?

I would say tar would do the trick with a -p and --same-owner.  man tar
