Hi,

I'm searching a tool that can show me all the restrictions of a directory or file, a kind of WindowsExplorer that can show user rights, permissions, etc. in one click.

Actually I have to right click - Properties - Security

Thank for your suggestions.
 
If you have access to C#, or VS.NET, the System.IO library contains FileInfo and DirectoryInfo methods that tell exactly what you need. With no more than 50 lines of code, you could make a small app that is a text window that refreshes when you click a file. You could even have it do this for selecting several files.
Sadly I no not of an app that already does this, though give me a couple of weeks, and I'll try to write you one...
(I imagine one already exists, though, just not sure where...)

Will
