I just noticed this .. My ACL's were not restored (probably not saved during the cloning process). Broken? Or Broken As Designed?

Thanks

No, we definitely do save and restore ACLs, as long as ACLs are turned on for the source.

Dave,

Is this new with v2? The clone I restored from was taken from SD v1.5.2 and I had to re-enable ACL's via fsaclctl and re-create the ACL's after the restore on a OS 10.4.5 system

I am now running SD v2.01

Thanks for a great product .. It has now saved me twice and am now a registered user.

That's right, it's new with v2. 1.5.2 certainly predated Tiger, and thus wouldn't even have known about ACLs.

Even 1.5.5, which was Tiger aware, used an API that -- to our surprise -- didn't copy ACLs. 2.0 corrected that, and 2.1 (when released) improves our ACL handling some more.
