I've built a new server. After I copy the shared folders
to the new server how can I move the shares over so I
won't have to recreate each one.

We move folders from one server to another server via
backup tapes (that ensured correct permissions), however
shares did not come over. we had to do each share by
hand. sorry.

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Lanmanserver\Shares

You should be able to dump that reg key and restore it on the new server
followed by a restart of the Server service to get your shares back
without manually recreating them.
