robocopy account privliges

[redBlue5]

Hi everyone:

I'm trying to copy 5gb data from one server to the another server with robocopy.I also wanted to copy NTFS security permissions.When I execute the following script:

robocopy "source address" "destination address" /S /E /COPYAT /V /Z /B /LOG+:C:\Logs\LOG1.log /R:1 /W:5

I keep getting an error msg. "a required privilege is not held by the client"

What type of account/membership do I require in order to perform this task.When I try to copy data without security permissions (just COPY option) ,I have no issue at all.

Any comment on that?

Who are you logged in as? Does the account have same privileges on both machines?

I'm assuming that you're copying to/from two machines on the same domain.

I'm also assuming that you're using an account that has the appropriate permissions to edit NTFS rights on the destination machine.

Correct?
