Moving my data to a new file server

[Dianne]

Hi All,

What utility do I use to copy my data to a new file server
and move the security settings with the files? (Using
NTFS)

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Try xcopy.exe

What do you mean by security settings?

Hello,

If you are referring to ownership and ACL information, then XCOPY with the
/O (as in owner) option should do this for you.

there are a few resource kit tools, scopy, permcopy and

robocopy, plus trail software on internet sites. Good luck
