Re: Network access not working

Maybe the account doing the robocopy does not have sufficient rights.
/B will run in backup mode, meaning if you have rights to back up the files it will work.

The second thing is, are your root folder permissions the same on both sides of the copy?

Although the testing last week went fine, today's actual move of production
file server files was a mess. There were two main problems when I used a
command like the following:
robocopy \\lbfs\public d:\public /E /COPYALL /R:2 /LOG:d:\Logs\public.log /NFL

robocopy \\lbfs\private d:\private /E /COPYALL /R:2 /LOG:d:\Logs\private.log
/NFL

The first was that is did not copy the security information for private at
all and only copied the security info for public for the top level folder.

I could deal with the first, but it also omitted copying files. All the
subfolders were copied but it did not copy any files.

When I was testing, it moved all the files and all the security folders at
all levels. I was testing with a much smaller folder set. Could that be a
factor?

Hello Bettie,
