copy root folder preserving permissions <param[ at ]community.nospam> 12/17/2008 12:58:48 AM Hi all, I have a Windows 2003 server that has a file share that is being used for My Documents redirection. Due to disk space issues I need to move this file share to another newly installed disk. How can I easily copy all the folder contents including all the child folders and its contents to this new disk and preserve all the ntfs & share permissions of all the child folders and its contents? TIA!

Re: copy root folder preserving permissions <augusto.alvarez82[ at ]gmail.com> 12/17/2008 8:15:48 PM Yes, of course. Windows Server 2008 already has it included as integrated tool. Also there's the robocopy GUI if you dont enjoy that much the command line: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/2006.11.utilityspotlight.aspx Cheers -- augusto alvarez | it professional MCP - MCTS - MCITP DBA http://blog.augustoalvarez.com.ar/ <param[ at ]community.nospam> escribió en el mensaje de noticias:uxXkWNIYJHA.5272[ at ]TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl...
