Dear Jessica,
 
For the NT security, the both filers must be set to NTFS or MIXED style (qtree option). Because you worked with unix and NT data, it must be MIXED style.
There is no need to format your filer, it has it's own file system (WAFL).
 
Greetings,

Subject: NTFS Formatting

I have a filer with UNIX and NT data.  I want to move via ndmp to a larger filer.  In preparation for the data move I read somewhere that in order for NT data to maintain security permissions, the destination must be NTFS formatted.  Is this true, and how do you perform this if the host is a Unix machine but other NT servers are available.  Also how would UNIX data fit on an NTFS format.  Any help is greatly appreciated.
