Our AD is real cluttered with duplicate security groups (slight different name same members) and I'm putting together a plan to clean it up.
What I need to know is there any way to find out what File Shares/Drives a specific security group has permissions to without going through 500+ folders/sub-folders? Much like the way you can see what groups a user is a member of.

Thanks.

This command will give you a .txt out put with all the groups (and permissions) attached to a share. "showacls /s "\\server\share" > c:\file_name.txt"

I know sysinternals has some neat tools that will do something similar.
