Hi All,
I'm at the final stage of migrating an old demoted DC server, now I'm stuck in migrating/copying the roaming profiles of the users from the old win2k server (oldServer1) into the new win2k3 server (newServer1)
there are lots of profiles which points into the old server:
\\oldServer1\profiles\user1
\\oldServer1\profiles\user2
\\oldServer1\profiles\user3
.
.
.
\\oldServer1\profiles\userN
in the ProfilePath
I'd like to move it into:
\\newServer1\profiles\user1
\\newServer1\profiles\user2
\\newServer1\profiles\user3
.
.
.
\\newServer1\profiles\userN
I tried to copy paste from my DOMAIN\Administrator account but it is failed to copy ? i cannot even browse inside the directory of user1 until userN ? is there any fastest way to do the copy process rather than "taking ownership" for each of those directory one by one ? [hopefully by taking ownership the user will still be able to use their profile normally]
Thanks.
