Orphaned Files and Folder

[Guest swinglek]

I am looking for a script / utility that would allow us to take ownership of

orphaned files or folders on the server?

Hi - you might have better luck in

microsoft.public.windows.server.scripting.

 

If you have trouble finding it (& even if you don't) you might want to

consider using a news client, such as Forte Agent, Thunderbird, or even

Outlook Express, rather than the pretty clunky web interface to the

newsgroups. It's a lot easier to do nearly everything that way. You can mark

messages to be watched, filter the views so you can see replies to your

posts easily, and search.

 

The Microsoft public news server is msnews.microsoft.com and you can

subscribe to as many groups as you like; no authentication is required.
