Hi, I am trying to copy a large amount of data from one NT4 server to another NT4 server using Robocopy. I am using the following syntax, robocopy \\server1\c:\path \\server2\c:\path
It is not working, the error message states that the source path cannot be found. ???

Try using the UNC address only
\\server1\path \\server2\path

Path meaning the SHARE name, no disk letter required.

Try robocopy \\server1\c$\dir \\server2\c$\dir I usually add the following switches as well: /mir (Mirrors directory and subdirectory structure) /mov (Moves data rather than just copy) /sec (Copies NTFS permissions as well) /r:1 /w:1 (Retry 1 time after waiting 1 second if a failure occurs) robocopy \\server1\c$\dir \\server2\c$\dir /mir /mov /sec /r:1 /w:1
