Hey there,

I am looking for a tool to look through a server for each shared resource
and pipe out a list of shared and security permissions.  Does something like
this exist?

Thanks

You can list all file and folder security permissions with this
command:

cacls d:\*.* /t

You should not really use share permissions. File and folder
permissions can do everything that share permissions can,
plus a lot more. Share permissions would be useful on FAT
volumes only.
