Hello all.
On a file or folder object in Windows 2000/2003, it is possible to
edit the standard Change, RW etc permissions and give "special"
permissions. These special permissions do things like allow/deny
"Create Folders/Append Data" and such.
What I am looking to do is use a script that I have that walks a
directory to set permissions on a specific subfolder that is found 4-6
levels deep (depending on where it is located) for one group where
they will have access to read and modify files but not create a
subdirectory. According to a Microsoft KB article, this requires
setting the permission on each folder individually. Since there are
over 5000 folders, I'd like to do it programmatically.
What I don't know, though, is can Win32::Perm (or any other module,
for that matter) set the granular permissions that 2000/2003 offer. I
want to remove the "Create Folders/Append Data" right on these
folders, but leave read ad write access, as per this KB article.
So, is it possible, and if so, any ideas on what the function would
be?
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thank you.
Howard
