I need a utility that will look at a netware 4.11 file system and will show you the file system and the trustees to each of the folders. I don't want to do this manually and have been looking for such a utility w/no avail.

Use the Netware "rights" command.
Open a dos box and map a drive to the root of the volume you want to check. Type "rights /t /s >c:\rights.txt" without the quotes.
/t = Trustee Assignments
/s = Search Subdirectories
This will write a file to the root of your c: drive called rights.txt that you can then open with any editor.

Type "rights /? all" to see complete help for the rights command. Hope this helps.

Hi,
Another solution is to download 'tback3.exe' from Novell. Basically it does the same as executing rights.exe with some parameters, but it puts it in a nice batchfile (which gives the same overview as rerouting the output of rights to a file) which you can use to restore, or after editing, to correct trustee rights in one shot.

Unfortunitely rights command was not acceptable. Tbackup created a file that I could get the right info from. Thanks

If you have a significant budget, you would want Bindview. It's pricey, but can produce reports on almost every aspect of your novell environment. Check it out at www.bindview.com
