Post #303,427 by boxley 1/31/09 4:58:22 PM Reply	warning not error warning some files cannot be copied due to permission settings let me do a find of both systems then a diff to see what wasnt copied ta
Post #303,429 by pwhysall 1/31/09 5:02:45 PM Reply	Yeah, but what did it say? Also, why aren't you doing this from the command line? You could tee the output of cp -v and see if you copied what you wanted.
Post #303,431 by boxley 1/31/09 5:25:09 PM Reply	well I had a problem with the old mac at the command line with the dot files associated with regular files and tar not working as expected. So I thought I should stick with the gui. I can just drop a cpio into cron if that works.
Post #303,430 by boxley 1/31/09 5:23:23 PM Reply	no worries after doin a diff the files not copied were devices, some cache objects in safari and the rest were under the .Trash(s) directory thanx, bill
