I ran that command on the server in question, including the quotes around the group name, and it just went to the next line, with a command prompt. There was no output. I know that this group has permissions on the drive I'm looking at.

Not able to get the /OUTPUT to work right, keeps saying "Cannot open output file c:\Temp\acl.txt for writing CreateFile error! (rc=123) The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect." I've read the help file for /OUTPUT, and tried all the variations, all with the same result. Does the file have to exist prior? I assumed the program would create the text file for me. Also, this tool seems to be for inputting a specific folder, and getting the accounts that have permissions. I want to do the opposite. I want to input an account, give it a file structure to search through (like the D: drive on a server), and get an output of all the folders this account has perms to, and what those perms are. >>> "Michael B.
