RE: [ActiveDir] migrate home dirs

2005-02-10 Thread Ulf B. Simon-Weidner 
Hello Tom,
 
if you run robocopy with the /copyall switch you can preserve NTFS Security
and Auditing rights on the files.
 
If your fileshares are on the same driveletter and have the same structure
on the new server, you can also just export and import the shares via
registry:
HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Lanmanserver\Shares
 
Gruesse - Sincerely,

2 questions-
hyena cost $$, is there a free tool that can migrate share perms?
 
whats the diff between copying dacls/perms using xcopy as opposed to
robocopy(or should i rtfm robocopy.doc first?). any reason to use one over
the other?
 
thanks again and again...

You can copy Share perms with ResKit tools...

ROBOCOPY is more flexible than XCOPY, but you could use either.

RE: [ActiveDir] migrate home dirs

Hyena is not free, but it is not THAT expensive. Permcopy is a free reskit,
IIRC.
 
You could use either xcacls or robocopy for the ACL. I have seen both of them
hiccup before, so I can't say one is better than the other. But, since you
are using robocopy to copy the files anyway, why not use the built-in
permission feature so that you don't have to go back and do xcacls after the
fact.
 
Whichever you use, you should bear in mind that the account that is running
the process must have access to the files being copied, otherwise you run
into issues. Also, use the log capabilities of robocopy so that you can go
back and see if anything fails during the copy. Make sure you set your retry
threshold VERY LOW (I usually set it to 1) otherwise robocopy will take
infinity to complete.
 
Oh, maybe you will get to the rtfm part in about a year. It's not really that
important readme is a misnomer, I think they meant to call it ignoreme ;)

Yes. The syntax is a bit different, but it will work. Just read the readme
doc
 
Actually, my original response should have been
 
Robocopy
Robocopy + Hyena (for share permission}
 
Robocopy itself will do the NTFS re-ACLing and you would then use Hyena to
copy the shares and share permissions
