I am just about to start a security audit of my data and file structure. What I would like to know is if anyone knows of a good tool that I can use to list the folders on a drive, and show the security for users or groups on the folder list. Such a tool would save me tons of time. If anyone can suggest a good tool, share/freeware would be the best, I'll happily award the 250 points. Thanks a lot.

XCACLS.EXE will tell you who has what kind of rights on files/folders.
And, it comes with Win2K!
Just open a Command Prompt, CD to the directory you want to start auditing, and run XCACLS.EXE *.* to see who and what kind of rights.

hope this helps
