Copy one user's data/profile to a different account


after frustrations around active directory , lion i've decided unbind mac , log in locally (for now). that, need create new local userid , copy data network id new userid.

question is, how do rights don't messed up?

did bit of testing , things seemed go wrong fast.

have local admin a, network user b, , newly created local user c. (all administrators)

logged , admin not see c, added myself read & write , forced down files under c's user directory. able copy directory b c, wasn't able access new files user a. logged user c test , couldn't access folder either.

i'm assuming isnt' windows files inherit parent level copied in.

there easy way this? , there files need run under permissions messed if pushed new ones down parent folder?
