I have several machines who have incorrect persmissions for thier D: drives. Is there a commandline utility that can reset owner/ permissions? I'd rather not go to each machine to reset them.
There are chown tools for Windows (e.g. [1]), which let you change the owner. To change the permissions use xcacls [2] from the Resource Kit. Use SysInternals' PsExec [3] to execute the commands remotely.
