Let me clarify the title...I am looking for a program that will scan a NTFS drive on a Windows NT server and tell me what permissions each user/group has on each file/folder. Is there something on the resource kit? I have the Win2k resource kit butnot the NT4 resource kit. I will also buy 3rd party with a good referral. Any help is appreciated!

The answer can be many programs. There are freeware programs out there i think one is called NT admin or sumthin, but the best IMHO is a program called HYENA . Do a search for it, its a neat lil program and gives you all the control u will ever need.

Personally I use a program called DumpSEC (Used to be DumsACL).

It lets you view the entire permission structure, and a whole lot more.

They also distributes Hyena, but I'm not sure it can do the tricks.(Haven't tried it)

you can use perms.exe from nt resource kit.
also it is a text output, it is almost free.
..any admin has resource kit in his hands.
