Question : Backup and Restore Permissions on a Server

We have a file server that is rather old and we would like to migrate all the files to a new server. However, we don't want to backup and restore the OS, just all the files and permissions.
So my question is what is a good way or product to get that will do this easily?

Answer : Backup and Restore Permissions on a Server

We use a product called securecopy from Script logic

http://www.scriptlogic.com/Products/securecopy/

Really great tool for file server migrations...not free

For a free tool you may want to give Microsofts' rich copy a try

Full disclousre:  I haven't tested RichCopy yet.

Thanks

Mike
