           Summary: sftp does not preserve uid/gid on fetch
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 3.4p1
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: sftp
        AssignedTo: openssh-unix-dev at mindrot.org
        ReportedBy: gfernandez at livevault.com


currently sftp does not attempt to preserve uid/gid on fetch.

If sftp is running as root, it could preserve uid/gid.

Note: a possible objection to implementing this was raised. Namely, whether 
uid/gid will make sense when sftp is being used in a cross platform case.
