From what I understand, it sounds like he wants to migrate a bunch of files and directories from a current server to a new one, and would like to keep his permissions (perms) in tact. If that's the case, I think robocopy.exe (from the resource kit) will do what you are looking for. I haven't had a need for it myself, but it should work. I thought there was another one as well, but I can't remember.
You could also try using xcopy. I migrated our NT4 file server to our new Win2k file server using this to copy all of our file permissions across with the files.
Run from the old server to copy to the new server:
xcopy d:\foldername \\newfileserver\d$\foldername /E /C /H /K /X /Z
The /E flag copies directories and subdirectories, including empty ones
The /C flag continues copying even if errors occur (maybe not a good idea for everyone)
The /H flag copies hidden and system files also
The /K flag copies attributes
The /X flag copies file audit settings (including file ownership and ACL information)
The /Z flag copies networked files in restartable mode
