Hi There,

Can it generate permission of folders/sub folders like xcacls for domain file servers?

It is very hard to modify the ACLs of the file system using WMI. It requires a array of Win32_SecurityDescriptor data structures as input and these are very hard to initialize manually.

You are better off using command line utilities (like xcacls), create a batch which does what you need to be done locally, and use the Batch & Script feature of Goverlan MC to dispatch its execution....

NTFS or Share permissions cannot be reported via WMI.

Again, the best way would be to create a batch program which uses CACLS to report ACLs and use Goverlan to dispatch the execution of that script on your machines and generate a consolidated output report.
