Find all folders for a specific user

[jrrob]

I've been asked to determine all folders that a specific user has rights to and what those rights are. Is there a utility out there that does this?


I know that the normal request is to determine all users that access a folder. Done that more times than I care to remember, but I don't recall ever having to do this. I suppose I could write a script that would scan ACLs on every directory and then filter for the userid that I want , but I don't want to get into that just to handle this one request.

Thanks,
Jim

Get the Dumpsec utility.

http://www.somarsoft.com/cgi-bin/download.pl?DumpAcl

It's a great tool that will scan entire drives, shared folders, mapped drives, whatever you want and it'll tell you basically everything you need to know.

You can sort it by user, by folder, by group... By all sorts of stuff.

Indeed get DumpSec from sysinternals website (now systemtools)
