I am using extended attributes provided by the XFS filesystem, and right now when I copy a file with an extended attribute bit set on, the copy of the file does not preserve the extended attribute. I could use some help in this area because I am not sure where to start. If anyone has some suggestions or can offer me some help or resources to go to, please let me know.
