Robocopy Command

I would like to copy a share folder to a new share  and maintain the ACL permissions. I have the path'correct however I need to know the correct  switch to copy entire tree and permissions. I am moving the folder running Microsft storage server 2008 on a Dell nx3000 NAS. I manually moved other share  folders and set permissions with no problem but the last folder Ineed to move would take hours to set permissions manually.  I tried the robocopy command but it only copied files not folders and they didn't maintain the ACL. So I need help! Thanks in advance..

Worked great thanks!
No problem :) I use robocopy for our backups as well as its a lot quicker because it only copies files that have changed / been added. Really is a awesome tool and no directory is too large for it.
