Alternatively, I need a way to set the ownership and permissions on a file to a user that does not exist, as far as I can tell. I have tried various methods of setting the permissions, and they all actually check for the validity of the permissions before applying them. I have also tries using PowerShell to pipe to permissions from one file with the odd permissions to the new one, but that checks the permissions as well.
This is the final step in being able to completely move a Hyper-V machine that was imported from VMWare to directory structure which matches the rest of our server, so its pretty important.
Thanks again!
