VBScript to list file and folder permissions.

November 17, 2006 8:58 AM

I know it is possible to write a VBScript script to list all the directories and sub -directories and their files on a Windows box. Is there any way to also have this script say exactly which users have permissions to these files (this is in an Active Directory domain)? Thanks in advance!

Couldn't you just script a run of cacls and pump the results to a text file? It's not going to give you a report on every individual item, but it will show you those files and folders where permissions have been explicitly assigned.
