Is There a Way to Migrate Permissions to a New Server?

[Guest razor]

Hello--

 

I may be way off base here, but we are migrating our web server to a new box

and wondered if there are any utilities to take the folder permissions from

one server and copy them to the new server?

 

Thanks,

Both xcopy.exe and robocopy.exe have appropriate

switches to handle permissions.

I used ntbackup once to migrate a file server with all the permissions and

it worked fine.

Yes, I saw how that can be done in a MS KB article #141589.
