Professor Frink Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 I am replacing about a half-dozen file servers in my various offices. Each user has a Home folder, plus there is a Common folder with various sub-folders (with all kinds of different permissions).When I physically copy all of the data to the new server, is there any way to carry over all of the security settings? It's set by a combination of domain users and groups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mockranger Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 xcopy /O The /O switch copies all ACL and ownership info. Add other switches as necessary.Think you can also do this with robocopy out of the resource kit.M- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Zugec Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 For server based operations I would recommend robocopy (free from Microsoft), it is really awesome error-prone utility... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
