In version 10d is you want to restore NTFS security, you have to restore the data as well.

However, a new option in 11d lets you restore only folders and files security, not data.

Can you direct me to the instructions on how to do that in 11d? This is good info, and ammunition to upgrade the rest of our servers to 11d. Thanks.

All you have to do in 11d is select "Restore only security information for files and directories" option when you restore.

The administrator's guide explains this option:

Select this option to restore only security information for files and
directories. No other information is restored. This option is valid
only for NTFS volumes. If you select this option along with the Skip
if file exists option, no information will be restored. You can use this
option with the Restore over existing files option and the Skip if
existing file is more recent option.
