Hi:

1. Wasn't sure where to post this hence this location.

2. How can I modify users' permissions on folders automatically - scripting
or otherwise. Manual is just too much work for ~1000 users.

3. Folder structure is
Users - User1Folder,User2Folder,...,UserNfolder

Thanks

You should be able to do it with Microsoft Extended Change Access Control
List Tool (xcacls.vbs).
Check out http://support.microsoft.com/?id=825751

Also there is a WMI method that you could use -- "SetSecurityDescriptor" in
Win32_LogicalFileSecuritySetting Class
Check out --
