copy nt4 folder to win2000

[Peterburg]

I have migrate nt4's user, group, to win2000 without
problem by using ADMT2

How can I move the 50GB data from old nt4 server to new
win2000 server with permission unchanged? Because there
are more than 100 folders have special permission.

Take a look at xcopy. It has a switch to include file ownership and ace
info as well as a lot more. Be sure to test on some junk stuff to be sure
you have the right switches etc to meet your needs before doing the whole
50gb, but I'm you probalby would have. (note; xcopy replaced scopy in later
versions of the nt4 reskit, so if you have earlier version look for scopy or
get a later copy)

.....robocopy from the resource kit is another option - if you use the /SEC
switch it will keep the security intact.
