Take Ownership of roaming profiles dirctory

[ml.net]

Hello - I'm in an odd situation that I have to believe others have run into.
I have users that are logging into a Terminal Server which then creates a
roaming profiles in the form of \\server\share\%username%. When I try to
browse the user directory I get an access denied error because only the user
has permissions and ownership of the folder. I know there group policies
that can revert this but it's not working as it should.

So I want to script an update to the ownership of the folder using subinacl.
Below is my syntax.

C:\>subinacl /noverbose /subdirectories \\server\share\folder
/setowner=domian\user

The command completes but nothing happens! I don't get any error nor does it
say it processed or modified anything. Therefore, no changes occur at all.
I'm logged in as a Domain Admin and I can reassign the ownership manually by
using the GUI.

Any ideas? Xcacls didn't seem to work either but I've heard subinacl does...

Thanks
ML

I'd like to see an answer to this too. I tried it once with the exact same
result and no matter what I did nothing changed.

Hi

A new, bug-fixed version of SubInACL.exe is available for download here
(Win2k/WinXP/Win2k3), but I have no idea if that solves your problem:
