Restoring files or folders

Hi all,

This may be a simple question but im fairly new to all this, so please bare with me
I use SD to backup network user accounts on an xserve from one 400gb drive to another 400gb drive.
If I want to restore individual files or folders I have to log into the xserve as root so I can access both drives and then drag the files from the backup to the main drive.
However after doing this the files lose their original ownership rights, and become the root users.

Am I missing something? If I login as admin, I cant get to the individual files so it has to be root doesn't it?

Thanks for any help
