      Take a look at RoboCopy from the NT resoucre Kit.  I havn't tried in on the
filer but I would think it would work.

Basic question.... what tools are commonly used to migrate NT directories
with complex permission sets?  NT is not very good at preserving
permission's.  I'm looking at the best method of migrating NT group
directories, many of which have very specific file permissions.
I've tried tools such as dumpacl but many of the functions don't work
against the filer.  I'm running 6.1.1R2 on clustered 840's.
Thanks!
