Hi,
I need to copy some folder from one server to another keeping folder
permisison and files timestamps.
I'm thinking to use robokopy from resource kit of Windows Server.

but..

Does Robocopy keep timestamps ?

thanks

Why don't you give it a try? It takes much less time than to write
a post and wait for an answer, and you will be really, really certain!

What I have found is that Robocopy (v1.71) retains the time-stamp and
attributes (using command line switches) of files, but cannot retain
the time-stamp of folders, which I find highly irritating.

In our business, I use the folder creation time to track when we made
shipments; if I now copy or archive these folders, I lose this
information, and I have to drill down into the folders to find out
when the product was shipped.

Does anyone know of a free command line utility that copies files and
folders while retaining both the file and folder time-stamps?

Thanks.

hhmm... zip-unzip? or use 7-zip from sourceforge? you'll have to take
care of removing the source, one can use ct.exe for that.. i have such a
batch file if you're interested..
