Subject: MacOS Permissions Lister 1.01


Permissions Lister 1.01 - a simple script that will save a list of the File
Sharing permissions of folders on a remote volume.  This is handy for
re-creating AppleShare IP permissions on a UNIX based server (MacOS X,
Linux, etc.)  Aliases that are found are listed in a seperate file, so you
may change them to symlinks if you wish.

This generates a text file (Mac formatted) that you can use to examine the
permissions on a Mac volume.  As the finder on an AppleShare IP server does
not control file sharing, this can only be used by running it on a client
computer that has a network volume mounted.

the resulting file will be in the format:
#### owner group pathname

The path name is in MacOS format (using ":").  I used this file to create a
shell script to run on MacOS X that will change the permissions of the
20,000+ folders that was transferring from a ASIP server.  Users or groups
that contain spaces may make the file confusing to a later script.
