Help: copying directory share names whilst doing bulk directory/file duplication.

[Troy]

I'm trying to copy accross a bulk amount of directories and data, keeping
the directory structure, ACL's and share names intact replicating that of
the source.

Unfortunatley xcopy and robocopy doesn't facilitate copying accross the
share names on shared directories. Does anyone know of a utility I can use
to come along after the above file copy and update the directories with the
matching share names, or if there isn't one suggest a better utility to copy
directories, files, ACL's and share names in the one process?

Thanks, Troy.

You could make it a two-step process:
1. Export hklm/system/currentcontrolset/services/lanmanserver/shares
to a file, then import this file on the new server.
2. Use xcopy to copy the files, folders and ACLs.
