Dear Customer,
Thanks for using this newsgroup. Based on your need, I'd like to recommend you using FSMT (File Server Migration Toolkit) , which will preserve the share and NTFS security settings of share folders after they are migrated to the new server. It simplifies the file server migration process and minimize the impact of file server migration on users. Additional Suggestions: ===================== You'd better to make the old windows 2000 file server and the new windows 2003 file server as the member server within a domain. 1. You may install File Server Migration Tool on the new file server. 2. Launch the File Server Migration Wizard. 3. Create a new migration project and save it in "C:\FileServerMigration" 4. When you add source file server, please input hostname (inputting IP address of server is not supported) 5. Please unselect the checkbox of "Resolve invalid Security descriptors" and select the checkbox of "Copy security settings" 6. You may find that all the files and folders with Share and Security permission have been replicated to the target server. 7. Since the Security descriptors (users and groups) are stored in Active Directory Database, all the folders and files can be accessible as normally. 8. Please remove old file server and rename new file server to the old servers name. 9. Please note: you may perform the migration in the spare time since this migration can be transplant to the clients.

For you convenience, I have summarized the steps below: 1.1) Copy all the data from the old file server to target file server using Robocopy with /SEC switch. This will ensure that both the folder structures and their NTFS permissions are fully copied the target file server. Important Note: Please ensure that both the target file server and the source file server have the same folder scheme (the shares' folder paths on the target file server are the same as the ones on the source file server). 1.2) Copy the share permissions from the source file server Actually, the share definitions are saved in the following registry key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\lanmanserver\Shares] Therefore, our steps in this section are: 1.2.1) Back up the above key on the target file server for recovery purposes. 1.2.2) Back up the key on the source file server in to a reg file. 1.2.3) Merge the reg file to the target server.

I used the MSFT to move shared folder from one drive to the other one the
same server. I noticed it will create a new shared name on target, and upon completion of the transfer, the source folder share still there. Is this normal ? To complete the move, is it just: 1. manual remove the source share 2. change the target share name Appreciate your advise.

Hi,
Thanks for your comments. This is normal behavior that the share permissions are still there after you complete share permission transfer. After you make sure that the share folders have been successfully migrated, you can remove the olds and adjust share name. However, if you use DFS for file sharing, you can simply adjust the corresponding access path on DFS server. Generally, we request one question per post in the newsgroups. In order to concentrate fully on each of these issues and provide clarity for others that may be following here. If you encounter other issues related to permission transfer or need further assistance on this issue, we suggest opening a new thread to ensure the issue can receive full attention. Thanks for your understanding and have a good day!

I can recommend a software called CopyRight2 that I recently used to migrate some file shares. It even copied the user passwords.

This is normal behavior that the share permissions are still there after you complete share permission transfer. After you make sure that the share folders have been successfully migrated, you can remove the olds and adjust share name. However, if you use DFS for file sharing, you can simply adjust the corresponding access path on DFS server. Generally, we request one question per post in the newsgroups. In order to concentrate fully on each of these issues and provide clarity for others that may be following here. If you encounter other issues related to permission transfer or need further assistance on this issue, we suggest opening a new thread to ensure the issue can receive full attention.
