Report on ACL

[Guest]

Hi Guys,
I am looking for a method (built-in tool or 3rd party tool) which will allow
me
run a report which show all users or group who have what permission in all
my folder structure on the file server running windows 2000 server.
On my file server I have a folder called GE, over the years users have
created subfolders and permission has been changed on those subfolders. I
can't keep track of what permission was given to what folder, therefore I
need to run a tool which produces a report showing the folder structure and
which users or groups belongs to which folder.

You could try DumpSec (previously DumpAcl - google for it)
or perhaps the less useful AccessEnum (now from MS, originated
by Sysinternals.com)
Any tool I have seen has an issue in that presenting complexly
varying ACL'ing clearly, simply is rather hard to do. Also,
determining where something originates inheritance is not
always clear.
