My question :
---------------------------
I have not tape driver on A. I wanted to backup system A. I mounted
directories on system B which has a tape driver. I noticed that system
couldn`t backup all subdirectories. It could backup files which have
permision 755 but it couldnt backup files which have permission 700.

So I couldn`t restore all subdirectories because of permission.

I wanted to copy that directories with cp -Rip but again the same problem
occured. Because I was root on B, I couldn`t access mounted A files with
B`s root, A`s files could be accessed by A`s root.

How can I migrate A files (700 permissions) to B system.

I tried another method like this after mounted on B.

# vdump -0f - -D | vrestore -xf - -D /newplace

I couldn`t see any files under /newplace
-----------------------------------------
Answer :
    You need to ensure that the directories are exported from A such
    that root is not mapped to nobody.
    
    Example line from /etc/exports on A:
    
    /export -root=0 -access=B
    

A is Linux system then I wrote

/mnt bornova.ege.edu.tr(rw,no_root_squash)

Thanks for all :
