xcacls/subinacls

I can't get xcacls to take ownership and grant full
control to the administrator for a users profile folder

xcacls.exe C:\usr\company\users\users-1\profile /T /E /G
domain1\administrator:OF

Access denied

I can do it from the gui.
Does xcacls work with dfs path or share
name\folder\profile?

Hi

As far as I know, xcacls isn't able to take ownership of files/folders.

SubInACL looks like is able to do this:

subinacl /noverbose /file \\server\share\dir /setowner=whoever
subinacl /noverbose /subdirectories \\server\share\dir\* /setowner=whoever


New bug fixed version of SubInACL is available for download...

Thanks Torgeir,
xcacls does claim to be able to take ownership but it does
not appear to be working for my profile dirs. I don't
know of subinacls works because after it runs I should be
able to run cacls to set perms but get "Access Denied".
