How to get Windows Server 2008 R2 File and Directory Permissions

Question

I have a setup similar to this:
e:\personal\username1\scans
e:\personal\username2\scans
e:\personal\username3\scans
e:\personal\username3\scans

Permissions are not inherited on these directories.

I have all permissions in place that I need, except that I need to add in username1 to have all rights except "full control" of "username1" and the "scans" directory below it.

I would like to use icacls.exe for this, can someone give me the correct syntax? If you can give me that much, I can do the rest of what I need.

I'd personally use the powershell command get-acl. – tony roth Jun 05 '12 at 20:04 — tony roth, Jun 05 '12 at 20:04

cacls e:\personal\username1\scans /t /e /g Users:f

where Users is your user name for this particular folder.

Sure seems like icacls -? would have given this to you:

I asked for the syntax, as in an example because I looked at the /? for it, and cant get it to work correctly. – Arrick Jun 05 '12 at 15:45
