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,

Robocopy from the resource kit can copy data with permissions:

In the same vein: On the new server I have a folder named public to
which all people have share and NTFS access. On the old server I
have a similar folder with the same accesses. This set of folders
is designed for access by multiple persons.

In some of the subfolders of this folder are files and subfolders
that have specific security assigned versus everyone having full
control. when I move such a subfolder to the new server's public
folder, it loses the security settings. Is there a way to preserve
these settings on a move?

In answering your question I saw that the share had read only
access. I changed it to read and change and now all works as it
should. That creates a new question. I did not set up the
original folder stucture on the old server. Is this the optimum
setting for the chare? Should I instead set it for domain admins
and myself and remove everybody?

Hello Bettie,

What error message do you get? Please post the share permissions
and also the folder NTFS permissions.

I have a new 2003 Standard server I have built to be a file
server for the user folders. I'm a domain admin with rights
everywhere. As a test, I moved my user folder over and now
cannot access files, add a new file or folder, etc. Since I
have the approproate rights, I checked the local security
policy and network access is allowed. I also checked the domain
security policy and it allows everybody network access as well.
Any ideas of where I should look next?
