NTFS Permissions

[TheGuy]

Hi Guys

Was wondering if anyone knows if NTFS permission stays in tack when copying from Domain to workgroup then back to domain.

The 2 domains run the exact same copy of AD they are just separated.

Nope, does not even stay intact if you copy it from one server to another in a domain... but you do get programs that will copy the permissions over as well.. can't remember what I used the last time sorry...

But I doubt that the permissions will stay intact.

Thanks Yes I will use Robocopy to keep the permission in tact i was just wondering if it will stay if I go out of the domain and back in.

use icacls to backup and restore the permissions on 2008 and cacls on 2003

ICACLS name /save aclfile [/T] [/C] [/L] [/Q]
stores the DACLs for the files and folders that match the name
into aclfile for later use with /restore. Note that SACLs,
owner, or integrity labels are not saved.

ICACLS directory [/substitute SidOld SidNew [...]] /restore aclfile
[/C] [/L] [/Q]
applies the stored DACLs to files in directory.

If anyone was wondering it's not possible. When it's in the workgroup the administrator doesn't have access rights to the files so you need to take ownership of the files before being able to copy it.
