Questions on using FSMT

dears,

i migrating file server forest forest

environment:

source forest: (its windows 2008 server having shared folders , permission users , groups, no file service or dfs installed).

target forest: (2 windows 2008 r2 servers running file server role dfs-r, replication server1 drive d server2 drive d)

current situation:

groups , users migrated using admt 3.2 source forest target forests, users able access files on file server in source forest.

my questions:

1-      do have configure dfs conciliation root wizard “which belong fsmt”?? p.s. remember source forest not have dfs, single server no file server role, shared folders.

2-      if yes, in dfs conciliation root wizard page servers consolidate should provide in following fields:

1. original computer name , dns suffix: “is source server name or target root dfs server name? or source dc or target dc?”
2. current name: ““is source server name or target root dfs server name? or source dc or target dc?””

3-      in file server migration root wizard in new project > in dfs consolidation root server page should select use following dfs root server??? server should provide?

thanks

hi,

if select copy security settings option, the file server migration wizard copies security settings files, folders, , shared folders, including ntfs file system permissions, auditing, ownership, , shared folder permissions. if select resolve invalid security descriptors option, wizard cleans security descriptors whose security identifiers (sids) cannot resolved on target file server.
