Need to Copy Shares from one server to another and retain all NTFS & File Level Permissions
I'm installing a new Windows 2008 R2 server in the domain. Currently the user shares are on one 2003 server. I'd like to robocopy a user at a time to the new 2008 server and verify their permisions are correct before moving all of them. I currently run Robocopy but need assistance so this can be done correctly the 1st time.
The folder structure looks like this: e:\Users\username
I plan to maintain the same folder structure on the new server.
Can someone provide details on moving them one at a time and then move the rest?

I just installed the new server installed. I'll test the Robocopy tomorrow.
I will suggest you instead of robo copy try Microsoft file migration tool. It is graphical base and very easy to work and troubleshoot the also.
Robocopy and FSMT both tools are provided by Mircosoft
