NTBackup Restore is replacing the domain name in all permissions!
Hello everyone,
I am using NTBackup to backup users files from Domain xyz.com to another Domain abc.com, however when I restore and check on restore permissions I got the following problem.
All users and groups are members of abc.com
Let's say we have a folder called SALES on a member server of xyz.com and we have a SALES group called SALES_SG member of abc.com which have full controll on that folder it looks like ABC\SALES_SG, when I do a restore on the other server which is member of abc.com the permissions are replaced with xyz.com so under security it looks like that -> XYZ\SALES_SG !!!
Any ideas why is that?
Thank you.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply, I am just migrating files and folders, all users and groups are already migrated to the new domain, only left one file server which is member of the old domain and we have a new file server which is member of the new domain and we need to move the files.
usually a backup and restore should do but it replace every domain name with the old one.

Just adding more info, if we restore the files on the same server all permissions remain the same no problems.

Ok again more information here.
After alot of trials I found out that if I restore the folder on Windows 2000 or Windows XP the permissions remain with ABC\SALES_SG however if I do the restore on Windows 2003 server ABC is replaced with the old domain name which is XYZ everything else remains the same.
Thank you.
