I am getting ready to migrate all the shares, directories
and files from our file server to a new file server.
When I attempted the following:
xcopy d: g: /T /E (just wanted directory structure at this
point)
It created the directories successfully until it hit a
folder that has sensitive HR data in it, and it
said "access denied".
I know I would need to take ownership of it, but is there
a way to identify which folders I may run into with the
same attributes before I proceed with xcopy?

Thanks, - John
