Does anybody know if using Robocopy with the "/B" option would have the effect of adjusting permissions on the files (not folders) to some sort of base/standard? I am migrating some files and had decided to try this option to get around "access denied" errors for things where folks had changed the default permissions or whatnot. I thought it was going swimmingly until I discovered that the files are not getting the permissions from the originals, although I had the "/COPY:DATSO" attribute there (even tried with "/COPYALL"). The *folders* have got the right permissions, they just are not inheriting the permissions from the files. The files are basically set to Administrators and System having full control and Users having read only. Additionally, the owner all show as the local administrator. Here is the command I was using:
ROBOCOPY \\server\share E:\dir\subdir\ /B /MIR /COPY:DATSO /R:0 /NDL /LOG+:"c:\path\robolog.txt" /TEE If "/B" is what invoked it, is there any easy way to send a new command that would just go and mirror the permissions/owner?
