I recently setup a local rsync server/client connection. The client (a SUSE system) and the server (an NSLU2 unslung 6.8) do not share common users/groups - they are completely different. When I backup a directory tree the users/groups are maintained at the opposite end but since these users/groups do not exist they are displayed numerically. My question - is this what one would normally expect when backing up to a remote system? I expect if these files needed to be recovered the numeric users/groups would recover to their proper names. Is there a problem here? How do others handle (or not handle) this?
