I need a script (pref VB) to change permissions on a folder in multiple
folders.
Example, imagine users home directory, so a folder contains all the users.
Each user has a folder inside their home directory called 'examples'. I
need a script to search for that folder inside each users home directory
and change the permissions to 'read, list folder contents'
Can this be done?
This is not being done on users home directories but this was the best
example I could give.
Or imagine their are 10 folders named 1 to 10. inside each folder are 5
folders named A,B,C,D and E. I want a script to search for the folder
named 'D' and change the permission on that folder only.
Your post is a little vague. You write that you wish to apply "read-only"
permissions to the "examples" folder but you never say WHO is supposed
to have this read-only right. You also do not state if the new permissions
should apply to this folder only or to its subfolders too.
Here is a simple batch file solution to get you started. It will give
everybody read-access to the "examples" folder. Remove the word "echo"
to activate it.
Line1=@echo off
Line2=set target=d:\Users
Line3=for /F "delims=" %%a in ('dir "%target%" /ad /b ^| find /i
"examples"') do echo cacls "%%a" /e /r domain\everyone
Line4=for /F "delims=" %%a in ('dir "%target%" /ad /b ^| find /i
"examples"') do echo cacls "%%a" /e /g domain\everyone:R
.
