icacls or subinacl Todd Hudson 04-22-2008

I am trying to figure out a way to backup the entire drive (D, E, etc) of a
Windows 2003 server. I tried looking at the syntax for subinacl and icacls,
but either I could not figure it out or it just did not work.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

I assume you are thinking of using subinacl and icacls to extract
ownership/ntfs permission information in order to store it with the data so
that your restore script, program, or whatever, can re-apply the original
permissions that restored files previously had. That's fine, but I do no
think either utility will actually create a copy of the files themselves.
I'm not sure what to suggest here, as I do not know if you are doing a tape
backup, an image copy to a removable drive, or across the LAN to a storage
device.

All I want is to create a file that has all ntfs permissions in it that I
can then restore if needed.
