Hi,

I need to batch edit the file permissions on lots of home folders. The permissions I want to apply are Domain Admins (full perm) & the user that the folder belongs to (full perm). Is there a way to do this, as the information will need to tie up with the AD user profile and the created folder?

Cheers

Assuming the home folder is the same as samAccountname, you might use something like this:

@echo off
::FIXHOME.BAT
::v3.1
::modified 8/20/2004 to apply permissions to all files and subdirectories
::modified 10/24/2005 to grant %Userdomain%\Domain Admins Full Control
::Reset user's home directory permissions.
::It is assumed the directory name is the same as the username
::All activity is written to a log file. The log file will be large 
::as every updated file will be listed.

::Put this script in the root of the home folder directory. Open a
::command prompt on the fileserver and run FIXHOME.

set zLog=ResetHomePerms.log

cls
echo FIXHOME.BAT
echo This script will reset permissions for all subdirectories
echo in this folder.  It is assumed that the subdirectories
echo are named the same as their respective username.
echo.
choice /C YN /M "Are you sure you want to proceed?"

if errorlevel 2 GOTO :Exit
if errorlevel 1 GOTO :MAIN

:MAIN
if exist %zLog% del %zlog% >NUL

choice /C CF /M "Do you want users to have (C)hange or (F)ull control permissions?"

if errorlevel 2 GOTO ResetF
if errorlevel 1 GOTO ResetC

:RESETF
echo Granting users FULL permissions
echo.
echo Granting users FULL permissions >>%zlog%
for /f %%i in ('dir /b /ad') do @echo %%i >>%zLog% && echo y|cacls %%i /T /g Administrators:F >NUL && cacls %%i /T /e /g %userdomain%\%%i:F >>%zLog% && echo **********>>%Zlog%
REM rem out or modify the following line if you do not want to give Domain Admins Full control
for /f %%i in ('dir /b /ad') do @echo %%i >>%zLog% && cacls %%i /T /e /g "%userdomain%\Domain Admins":F >>%zLog% && echo **********>>%Zlog%
goto :CLOSE

:RESETC
echo Granting users CHANGE permissions
echo.
echo Granting users CHANGE permissions >>%zlog%
for /f %%i in ('dir /b /ad') do @echo %%i >>%zLog% && echo y|cacls %%i /T /g Administrators:F >NUL && cacls %%i /T /e /g %userdomain%\%%i:C >>%zLog% && echo **********>>%Zlog%
REM rem out or modify the following line if you do not want to give Domain Admins Full control
for /f %%i in ('dir /b /ad') do @echo %%i >>%zLog% && cacls %%i /T /e /g "%userdomain%\Domain Admins":F >>%zLog% && echo **********>>%Zlog%

goto :CLOSE

:CLOSE
echo. >>%zLog%
date /t >>%zlog% && time /t >>%zLog%
echo.
echo See %zlog% for details

set zLog=
set zLogError=

:EXIT
echo Exiting script

I strongly urge you to test any solution in a non-production environment.
