SYMPTOMS
ACLCONV reads a LAN Manager ACL file and re-applies the permissions on
the same directory tree under Windows NT. When you run ACLCONV the
following error message may appear:
CAUSEACLCONV is unable to read ACL files that are modified using the append option. MORE INFORMATION
In LAM Manager, the ACL file is created using BACKACC. There are two
command line options to BACCACC:
It is possible to collect permissions for just few directories. For example:
The FILE.ACL file is created, and permissions for DATA1 are stored. If you the run BACKACC C:\DATA2 /F:C:\FILE.ACL /S /A, permissions for C:\DATA2 are appended to FILE.ACL file When the system is upgraded to Windows NT, or if the directory trees are copied to another computer running Windows NT, ACLCONV is used to reapply the permissions. This only apples to an Windows NT file system (NTFS) formatted partition. Following the above example, running ACLCONV /DATA:FILE.ACL /LOG:FILE.LOG will cause the following error message to appear:
RESOLUTION
To work around this problem, run BACKACC to create separate ACL files and
then run ACLCONV to restore permissions, or run BACKACC to collect ACLs for
the entire drive and then restore them. For example, on a LAN Manager
system, run:
BACKACC C:\DATA1 /F:C:\FILE1.ACL /S On an Windows NT system, run: ACLCONV /DATA:FILE1.ACL /LOG:FILE1.LOG STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.5. We
are researching this problem and will post new information here in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
