9945 » How can a script backup or restore NTFS permissions? 05-Dec-05

The syntax for using NTFSBKP.bat is:

NTFSBKP DriveOrFolder DestinationFolder BKP|RST

Where:

DriveOrFolder      is the drive, or folder, including files and sub-folders, 
                   whose NTFS security you wish to backup or restore. 

DestinationFolder  is the destination folder that will contain /does contain
                   two files that hold backed up security attributes.

BKP|RST            BKP causes NTFSBKP.bat to backup the NTFS security.
                   RST causes NTFSBKP.bat to restore the NTFS security from the previous backup.
