Copy folders in Win2K server

[Jason8888]

Hi,

I set up a new Win2K server to replace the old Win2k
server, 'cause the old one is broken and can not boot
after I upgraded it to the SP4(error code 128, c0x0000006).
So, I transferred the IDE HD from the broken one to the
new Win2K server. And it seems working well now.
However, I tried to copy some folders from the old IDE HD
to the new SCSI HD, and some error message saying some
files are being used, other error message saying I have no
right to do the copies.
Since all HDs now only in one Win2K system, and I logged
on as the Administrator. Why I can't do the copies?
Any help will be appreciated.

Appears you'r etrying to copy stuff out of the Documents and Settings
folder?

Check the permissions on the folders. Add yourself with FC if not in there
and propogate the settings to the subfolders (under advanced button).

Hello, there can be a several reasons.

1. Start with take ownership of the folders and files you want to copy from
the old harddrive/partion.

2. Make sure Encrypting File System (EFS) is turned off.
