Copy directory structure with permissions intact and shares

Hi,

What is the best way to copy a directory structure with permissions intact?
Also, can we use the same method with shares?

I know I can start with: dir -r | ?{$_.psiscontainer -eq $true}

Thanks,

If you want it done quickly and with minimal fuss, I'd just use Robocopy
with the /Sec argument.
