JSI Tip 9640. How do I print permissions on a folder tree using standard commands?

In tip 0425, I explained how to read the permissions displayed by the CACLS command.

I have scripted ListPerm.bat, to display the permissions of a folder tree. The syntax for using ListPerm.bat is:

ListPerm "Drive:\Folder" "ReportFile".

Where:

"Drive:\Folder" is the path to the folder you wish to enumerate.

"ReportFile"    is the fully qualified file name of the file that will contain the report.

ListPerm.bat contains:

@echo off
setlocal
IF \{%1\}\{\} GOTO bad
IF NOT EXIST %1 GOTO bad
IF \{%2\}\{\} goto bad
set pf=%1
set report=%2
if exist %report% del /q %report%
cacls %pf%>%report%
for /f "Tokens=*" %%a in ('dir /a /b /ad /s %pf%') do (
 cacls "%%a">>%report%
)
endlocal
GOTO :EOF
:bad
@echo Usage: ListPerm "Drive:\Folder" "ReportFile"
@echo.
endlocal
