So I observe that when I use rdiff-backup I'm not getting the permissions I expect on the destination volume.

I also observe than when I look at the drive info for the drive I use for Time Machine backup it doesn't ever given you the choice to ignore permissions where as every other drive does.

Even when I have the ignore permissions unchecked I noticed that I still end up with permissions with the unknown user on the destination volume.
