    I am trying to move a large number of files (600,000 or so) from an AD-connected Windows Server to an AD-connected XServe.

    When I copy the files in the Finder, I get all of the Windows-AD-related groups and permission (as I had hoped). I DO NOT get these when I copy the files using the Windows computer, only while using the Mac.

    What I want to know is, is there a CLI application to do the same thing? I don’t want to have to rely on the GUI.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks.

    That’s just funny. I posted the question a month ago. Now, the day after I discovered ditto and used it successfully, I get a reply!

    Thanks for the hint. Ditto works great!
