Do not know why :-( I create new ones with: bin>mkpasswd -l > /etc/passwd bin>mkpasswd -g > /etc/group create a new file /etc/test.txt bin>ls -alh /etc/test.txt bin>-rwx------+ 1 meyer Kein 0 Dec 1 23:01 /etc/test.txt Than I run a backup: After that my backup-protocol shows: create 644 18/544 0 etc/Test.txt But 18/544 is SYSTEM:Administratoren as /etc/passwd -> SYSTEM:*:18:544:,S-1-5-18:: and /etc/group -> Administratoren:S-1-5-32-544:544: shows.
