RE: migrating file permissions

Hello again,

I went through the documentation of the SidWalker tool. I just wanted to
clarify one thing. As i understand, if i use this tool, i would not need to
go through the ADMT. All i need to do is make new user accounts which will
have different SIDs in the new domain. Then use the tool to map the ACLs from
accounts in the old domain to the corresponding accounts in the new domain.
and finally the users can log in with their new user accounts to the new
domain and still have same access to various folders in the filer which has
joined the new domain also.

Is this correcnt??

Thanx again.
