well, the reason we need to see it is for security reasons.

I am not sure why the reason for our inquiry is important to the forum. We could be looking for permissions on any file for any reason. I hope you don't think I put posts on the forum just to see how good of a script can be developed for no good reason....
I am not as good of a "kixter" as most of the guru's here and the assistance from the forum has helped us tremendously. I, for one, am very thankful for this board and the help that is provided in it. This is why I continue to come to the board and ask for help.

Our systems are on a classified network and the systems must meet certain security requirements. Reading permissions on selective files helps us identify vulnerabilites in our systems which have the potential of putting National and/or Global security at risk.
