Subject  :  SC and subdirectory permissions
Size(KB) :  0


It appears when I copy subdirectories from a server, the permissions for 
the subdirectory itself are not retained. Consider the following example:

xxcopy \\server\share\data\ c:\data\ /clone/sc

All the files in the "data" have the corresponding permissions but the 
directory itself does not. Is there something else I should be doing? Is 
there a way to copy a directory tree and have the subdirectories 
permissions copied as well?

What I am trying to do is take a list of path names (with multiple levels 
of directory names) and copy the files AND permissions for the whole 
tree. In this example:

xxcopy \\server\share\sub1\sub2\sub3 c:\sub1\sub2\sub3\ /clone/sc

I would like the permissions for all three subdirectories to be the same as 
on the server.

BTW, this has to be done today so any help would be appreciated ;)
