In the course of a lawsuit, I need to provide copies of some user home folders. These folders are set so that the user in question is the owner, and no one else has access on the NTFS permissions. (it's a home folder, after all). So the problem comes in when I do a restore of these folders to a new location for the lawyers. They want to copy the files onto a portable hard drive they bring with them. Of course, in order to do this, I have to seize ownership and put my account on the security, else I can't read the files at all (the folders are set to not inherit permissions).
This changes the modification date to the date I do the seizing, and that upsets the lawyers. And I can't really think of a way around that. I can't change the original folder security, and my backup program (EMC Networker) doesn't have an option to restore without Windows security. And the lawyers don't want the tape with the backup on it - they have to have it on their external drive. I can't think of a way they can copy the folders to their external drive that doesn't include me seizing ownership and therefore screwing up the modification date. Anyone?
