Oh, I dissagree. I run S2S on a nightly basis and the Assist Import Server option works great at mirroring the settings from my Primary Server to my Secondary Server. Not only does it mirror the security settings, it also mirrors the shares.

Here's the step by step that I do.

Unfortunately, they provided a command line way to do everything with Assist except the import server option.
