Shelling cacls is by far the easiest. You could do some ADSI permission magic, but, that's a nightmare (as-is Win32 ACL fun). --Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED] Payton on the web! www.wpcp.org v - 773.534.0034 x135 f - 773.534.8101

We are using Windows Server 2003 and AD with a single domain. I know how to create the user accounts and home folders but not sure the best approach to assign the permissions. Any suggestions on doing all three or at least the permissions part.
