It is not the problem of the character size of a single path component. It seems to be the problem that the NTFS permissions are only copied for a limited number of component in the path. So if the path has more than 24 nested components (index > 24) the remaining subdirectories and files are copied but not their NTFS permissions. They are missing completly for all path elements behind number 24. It seems to be a Microsoft limit as Microsoft robocopy shows this limit as I found in my tests (see above).
Reflector shows the same behavior. It is not able to copy any permissions of path elements with an index greater than 24, so that for paths with more than 24 components (directories or files) the permissions are missing. Does Reflector use any Microsoft functions or SDK for the single copy tasks?
Reflector notices that the permissions are missing and reports an error message for each file and directory. So is there a chance for a workaround for such paths with more than 24 components?
