SYMPTOMS
========
When you try to redirect the output of CACLS to a file, the resulting
information is incomplete. For example, the display output of "cacls c:\" is:
c:\ BUILTIN\Administrators:(OI)(CI)F
Everyone:(OI)(CI)C
CREATOR OWNER:(OI)(CI)F
NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(OI)(CI)F
If you redirect the ouput with "cacls c:\ >file.out," File.out only contains
the following:
\:(OI)(CI)F
:(OI)(CI)C
:(OI)(CI)F
\:(OI)(CI)F
CAUSE
=====
With Service Pack 2 for Windows NT 4.0 and Service Pack 5 for Windows NT 3.51,
Cacls.exe was modified to handle extended characters. This modification required
output routines that cannot be redirected.
RESOLUTION
==========
Use Cacls.exe that ships with the Windows NT 4.0 CD-ROM or use XCACLS from the
Windows NT Server Resource Kit with Update 1.
NOTE: Xcacls.exe is located in the folder where you installed the Windows NT
Resource Kit; the default location is C:\Ntreskit. On the Resource Kit CD, it is
located in the following folder:
D:\<platform>\Netadmin
where D: is your CDROM drive and <platform> is your computer platform, such
as i386 or Alpha.
