ADMT v3 and DFS
jmp13 15.06.2007 14:31:01
We are currently in a middle of an NT to AD migration. The issue is data has
been consolidated from the servers to DFS with NT credentials because the
user acccounts and servers have not yet been migrated over to the AD domain.
The DFS servers are in the AD domain so there is no need to migrate them. All
the NTFS permissions are pointing to the NT user account instead of the AD
user account so when the trust is broken nobody will be able to access these
files. Can I use the ADMT v3 Security Translation Wizard to replace the
source domain with the target domain? Is there another tool that will work? I
know that subinacl does not work with DFS according to the documentation.

If you migrate the users and groups with SID History, there will be no need
to do anything. Source Translation on works on machines being migrated, but
it sounds like this is not the case.

What part of DFS does subinacl not work with (and which docs are you
reading)? As far as resources go, these are just shares to be accessed by
users - subinacl scripts should work fine. DFS, in the end, is just a nice
way to get users pointed to what they've been pointed at for 20 years - NTFS
shares. :)

In the htm that comes with subinacl dowload: it states "SubInACL is not
supported on distributed file system (DFS) volumes" I need to change NTFS
permissions on files and folders. Subinacl would work do the job.

Hmmm... I have no idea what that doc is trying to state. :) Subinacl should
work fine on shares and folders, regardless of whether you get to them via
DFS or just \\server\share.

When I try using "subinacl" on a DFS path, I get an error message:

C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools>subinacl /file
