File Permissions

Hi.

SCopy is a command-line utility used to copy files and folders from NTFS
partitions with their security intact. This utility can be found in the Windows
NT Server Resource Kit. Scopy syntax and available switches are as follows:

Scopy [source] [destination] [/o] [/a] [/s]
Where:
[source] specifies the source for files to be copied.
[destination] specifies where to copy files to.

Switches:
/o copies owner security information.
/a copies security auditing information.
/s copies all files in sub-folders.
/? shows all command-line options.

Scopy tries to use the following user privileges in these cases:

- The backup files and folders privilege allows you to copy files when ordinarily your accessis restricted at the source.

- The restore files and folders privilege is needed to use the /o switch to copy files that are not your own (/o switch copies ownership information).

- The manage auditing and the security log privilege is needed to use the /a switch (the /a switch copies security auditing information).

NOTE: To copy your own files, you do not require any special user privileges. To
use the /o or /a switches (or to copy other users' files that you do not
ordinarily have access to), you must be logged on as a member of the
Administrators group. You must be logged on to both the computer you are copying
the files from and the computer you are copying the files to. Further
information may be found in the Windows NT Server 4.0 Resource Kit.

Hope this is what you were looking for.
Regards.
