I once had to use XCOPY with the /S (subdirectories) and /D (only copy file
if newer) options to do just what you describe, Ed. I moved existing files
to test server, restored from tape with permissions, then use XCOPY with /D
to copy any newer or changed files.
Unfortunately, this was fairly painless process, so decided to make the
junior admin who screwed up the permissions sort out our CD cabinet for a
day instead.

Tell ya what. Make the bozo that messed up your security take responsibility
for this. Put the burden on that person's shoulders to get it back to the
way it was. Guaranteed they will never make that mistake again for a long as
he/she is in the IT business.
Restore is your fastest best option. Backup the current directories right
now. Then restore the old files and folders. If somebody is missing a file
or needs a current version, get it from the screwed up permissions backed up
files. If you restore the file to a different location and then copy it into
it's final location the file with inherit the proper permissions.

I'm talking about the file server, I have folders that already defined with
users and groups and someone mess around with it from the top and
propergated all the way down, and this is a bitch to do it manually. I was
hoping that I can restore it

So, if you messed up the NTFS permission, you pretty much have to restore
the entire drive. Right?

NTFS permissions are stored on disk, not in the registry.
Share permissions are at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\lanmanserver\Shares.
However, the share permissions are not human readable. It may be more
useful to use Resource Kit utilities such as SrvCheck.exe and RmtShare.exe.

It is hard to imagine a more stupid or more dangerous way of making
decisions than by putting those decisions in the hands of people who pay no
price for being wrong.
