Subject: [netatalk-admins] lost filetypes when copied under UNIX

Hello,
I'm running a Linux fileserver with netatalk , and everything is
running smoothly.
One big problem though : when I copy my files from a MAC to the shared
disk on the Linux-system, the MACS recognize the right file type. When
I copy files under Linux by cpio from one disk to another , all the
files are recognized on the MACS as UNIX text files (f.i. photoshop
files).
Is therer not some rebuild function (like HELIOS has) to gather the
right info about the files? The AppleVolumes.system file seems to work
only on files with a file-extension. Most files on a MAC don't have
this.
Has anybody some answer on this one please?
Thanks,
Chris
