SYMPTOMS
When you use the Migration Tool for NetWare (Nwconv.exe) with a mapping
file to migrate files, groups, and users from a NetWare server to a
Windows NT domain controller, you may find that file and folder
permissions for groups are not correctly migrated. In addition, you may
see errors in the Error Log similar to the following:
[Transferring Files]
Access Rights for: <Volume>:<Dir>Error 0: Adding Access Rights.
User/Group:<OldGroupName>
NOTE: The old group name is listed in the Error Log instead of the new
group name. The new groups are created on the Windows NT domain
controller; it is only the file and folder permissions for these groups
that are not created.
CAUSE
This problem occurs because of improper sorting of the mapped group names.
The Migration Tool for NetWare uses a binary compare of the existing group
list and the mapped group list.
