Well, assuming you are talking about home directories or profile directories
or something, if the directory name matches the account name you could do
this very easily with some scripting of the XCACLS utility...   If, however,
they don't match up, well, then......    ??
 
I already have a script written to do this if they match, I just did it a
couple weeks ago when I moved to a new file server and had to reset all the
permissions on home and profile directories..  I simply wandered through my
AD OU's and grabbed the folders that matched the user's account names, and
then changed the permissions on them as such.

I need to change NTFS permissions on 125 directories. Assigning only the
user to each one and removing admins etc.  Is there a way to do this with a
script or command line using a variable such as %username%, or something?
 
Thanks,
