Tool to list security permissions?

[Guest]

Is there a tool (built in to windows or otherwise) that will list all the
permissions and folder access for a user account? I want to compare the
account settings on one machine to the settings on another machine to see
what's different?

Thanks,

I don't know of way to do what you want specifically but the above tool may
help.

there is about a dozen ways to do this. I would start with the windows
resource kit.

There is a free tool from Somarsoft called dumpsec that may help but you can
not filter it to the user. There is a tool from Microsoft called showacls
that can do it better per user or group but does only so for generic
permissions [for folders, subfolders, and files]. --- Steve

You could pipe the output of cacls.exe from the command line to a file on
each system and then compare.
cacls *.* /t /c > filename.txt

t = for subdirectories
c = continue on errors (like the page file for instance)
