I can't explain it so I'll give an example.


I have a user say Tom0, who has specific rights throughout the file
system, I need to provide the user Tom (not Tom0) the same rights to
the same files and folders.


In other words if I pull up the security tab on a folder named PUBLIC
and see Tom0 has RWX on that directory and all sub-directories, I need
to grant user Tom the same.


I need to do this throughout the file server. My situation is that I
have accounts named username0 and others named username (they match
except for the 0,TOM0 and TOM). TOM needs to have the same rights
everywhere TOM0 does. So if TOM0 appears in the DACL for an object,
then TOM needs to with the same rights.

Can I automate this?


Any ideas?

define a custom group tom-grp, make tom and tom0 accounts
members of tom-grp and then use subinacl utility to replace all
instances of tom in NTFS grants with tom-grp
