Permissions Issue

Hi,
I recently migrated my departmental file server to a new Windows 2008 R2 server from our old Windows 2008 R2 server. I used Robocopy to copy the files over with permissions intact, which it did. the permissions are the same. For the 2 non-administrator users that use this server, they cannot save to the new server. they can read, and open without a problem, when when they try to save, they get "this folder is marked as read-only" or "access denied. contact your administrator". Did i miss something?
Thanks,
Al

Hi,
What about share permissions ?
There are two ways to migrate network shares with permissions.
You could use Robocopy and then import/export registry.
Robocopy : http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc733145%28v=ws.10%29.aspx
Saving and restoring existing Windows shares : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/125996/en-us
You could also use File Server Migration Toolkit.
