Opening User Files (Admin Windows Server 2003)
So in a previous thread I said i would be taking a company off of a server because it is unnecessary and has given them more headaches than use. However, to make sure I have everything backed up I want to be able to pull the user files off of the server under what has been saved but cannot. Windows gives me an error saying it cannot open the folder to view the contents. These are the user's private folders from their computers stored on the server. Is there anyway to pull these files off?
Have you tried turning it off and on again? :bs:

Also, you might want to look into using a utility like Robocopy in order to preserve acls so you don't have to recreate them on the new server.MCTS: Windows Vista, Configuration
