Hi!
I need to move a large shared directory which contains multiple shared
directories from one server to another and retain all shares and
permissions.
Is there an easy way to do this?

Export from the registry the branch
hklm/system/currentcontrolset/services/lanmanserver/shares
to a file, then import it on the new server.

Use xcopy.exe or robocopy.exe to copy the various folders.
Both commands have a switch to copy permissions.
