It is a little late now but there are better ways to migrate permissions
such as xcopy /o or Robocopy. From what I can see showacls does not
accurately reflect special permissions as in exactly what it applies to as
seen in the "apply onto" box in special permissions for folder only, files
only, etc. You may have to make a best guess starting with conservative
permissions for non default groups. System and administrators always have
full control other the administrators may not have permissions to users
profile or home folders. Users usually have full control permissions to
their profile and home folders. Beyond that users usually have no more than
read/list/execute permissions. Showacls /? will show more information about
what its entries mean. It looks like d is read data and f might be file
execute. --- Steve
showacls /s /u:domain\user filespec
/s include sub-directories
/u specify domain\user
ACE header values:
0x1 - Object Inherit ACE
0x2 - Container Inherit ACE
0x4 - No Propagate Inherit ACE
0x8 - Inherit Only ACE
Access mask values:
A Generic All l List Directory
R Generic Read d Read Data
W Generic Write S Synchronize
X Generic Execute r File Read
w File Write a File Append
fx File Execute D Delete
rE Read EA rW Write EA
