Is their any way to globally change permissions to a bunch of directories ?
I explain, I have the following path structure (win2k)
I want to add in all the "Sales" Directories of dozen of customer folders
one more member with Read-only permission (just an example). Is their any
way of doing this without going to all the directories and change it by hand
?

Thanks in advance!

+------Customer1
+------------Folder1
+------------Folder2
+------------Sales
+------Customer2
+------------Folder1
+------------Folder2
+------------Sales
+------CustomerN
+------------Folder1
+------------Folder2
+------------Sales
 
Dear Vassili,

You can use the cacls.exe command. You can see the syntax of this
command inside the windows help file. Just do a search for "cacls".
