copy a fs with the same privileges

Hi All,

I use "cp -R /fs/* /newfs" and I can copy everything except it won't have the files/directories the same privileges.

Is there a trick to this without using a software-backup.

Thanks in advance,
itik

or:

Code:
# cd /old/fs
# tar -cf - | (cd /new/fs ; tar -xf - )
