Is there a reliable way to store ACLs in tar archives? I've tried to create with "tar cpf" and extract with "tar xpf" with no luck. Only flags are extracted correctly. Should I use another format (I've tried pax as per default and ustar)? Is it possible at all? I'll be glad to hear about any solution which allows for selective archival of a file system. I.e. anything except for dump/restore. So far I haven't had any luck with pax and cpio.
