Anyone know of a freeware program that will list directory/file permissions for each user in AD? I'm thinking something I run on a specific server (such as file) and it queries AD and looks at the ACL and compiles the results. Is there such tool?

Also, where is the ACL stored, is it just a plain text file somewhere or is it hard coded in the FS?

The ACL is located in the filesystem. If you wanted to write something this wouldnt be too hard to write in vbscript.

I found this neat program called fileacl that will do what I need. This program can also modify permissions, I could see this being rather useful in a domain environment. I'm writing a simple C++ program to parse the output and make a html report which will go to the customer.
