File server data migration from Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server 2008r2

Hi, I am just in the middle of planning a file server migration from Windows 2003 to Windows 2008 R2.

The files that need to come over to our new 2008 file server are our Users data from their home drives and applications, both shared folders and have permissions set as to who can access them.

I've been testing a basic robocopy script  as a bat file, as follows:

@echo on

robocopy c:\test\source c:\test\target /mir

 I tested this on my 64 bit Windows 7 Enterprise Laptop and was able to copy a test folder from the source to the destination and it also brought over the permissions which is what I was looking for.

The only thing that didn't seem to work was the folder shares, which did not come across.

Is there anything by way of another switch in the robocopy syntax that I'm missing to bring over the folder shares?
