Permissions on what? You can use command line tools like cacls or
SubInAcl or use the built-in GUI tools. How you use the GUI tools
depends on the Windows XP version that you have (Home or Pro).

Thanks for your quick reply, John John.

I'm referring to folder/file permissions. I was hoping there was a report
or query we could run that would show the users and what permissions they
have -- maybe even what group(s) they belong to.
 
By the way, we are using XP Pro.

With XP Pro you can right click on any object and then click on the
Security Tab and you will find the security details for the object.

To get a list of local groups from a command prompt you can use the net
command:

net localgroup

will show you the groups on the computer. You can then run the command
against specific groups:

net localgroup administrators

will show the members of the administrators group. You can redirect the
output of the commands to text file:

net localgroup administrators >admins.txt


You can get further security information using the cacls or subinacl
commands, for example try this:

cacls * /c

I think however that for what you want to do it might be easier to use a
third party tool like DumpSec:
