Report ACL lists for a folder structure
« on: July 24, 2008, 09:11 AM »
I'm looking for a program that creates a texfile with all ACLs from a root folder down, showing the additions / removed permissions only.

so if I have a C:\test folder which John and Bob has read access, and a subfolder called test2 which John and Pete read access I'd expect a report like:

Code
c:\test  - READ: John Bob
    +--- test2 (READ: -Bob, +Pete)
Or something more legible. I want this program so I can redo an existing ACL structure and the interface windows provides is useless.

BPACLer looks really useful (be warned if you use AdMuncher half the page doesn't display at all - including the download link!)

Strange. I don't experience that (Opera browser but no AdMuncher).

The XCOPY trick doesn't work? :(

yes i can clone the tree but then i'll still need to check every file for incorrect permissions. it's possible to do the same with robocopy btw with /sec /create (creates a series of 0 byte files and folders).

the xcopy trick is good for having to copy acls from a to b. I need to clean up too :(

Ah, sounds like a quite tedious task you've got on your hands - I feel your pain! :)

(see attachment in previous post)

It was an AdMuncher issue - I reported it and they have already issued an updated pattern file to fix it.
