no you can't with a command like pkgacct. but you can do that with tar

tar -cf homedir.tar /path/to/homedir

anyway still you will have to use chown command to change permissions

XSLTel Reviewed by XSLTel on . how to backup the home directory using ssh? I know i can back up the home directory + databases of one account in cPanel, but is there a command like pkgacct that will backup only the home directory? (without databases) Basically, I want to transfer all file from one account to another, with same files/folders permissions. If anyone have any suggestion for me, please post here :) Thank you!
