[Samba] Automating migration of files from windows to samba

Your not very efficient method won't work either.  When the file is copied
it will
get the following by default:

user = NT user
group = NT user's primary group

And NO other permissions, even if you have ACL enabled.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

BTW, I'd love to hear the solution.

Has anyone figured out a good automated way to migrate files from 
Windows Server to Samba Server without compromising file ownership and 
permissions?
 
We could just log on as each user and then drag and drop using windows 
explorer to preserve the permissions and ownership rights but that is 
not a very efficient method. 
 
We are using Samba with winbindd against a windows 2000 Domain 
Controller.
