How does Networker backup files and folders if the files and folders in question have had all permissions removed.
Does it use specific accounts to get rights or does it somehow get round permissions for backups.
 
On Windows NW uses the 'system' account
On UNIX/Linux NW uses the 'root' account

This ensures that the sowftware has all rights to backup whatever is necessary.
