I am in the process to trying to come up with a script for look at access
right of particular user or group. what is the best way


I ma aware of file system objects, and somehow I guess I can use cacls or
equivalent and iterate folders, files.

for a given folder and its contents, if the permissions are inherited by its
files and subdirectories, I prefer not to list its files and subdirectories
but only exceptions

or is there already such scripts out there from Microsoft or whatever that
there is no point of me re-inventing from scratch?

Not a script, but a program: AccessEnum by Bryce Cogswell, formerly of
Sysinternals <http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/AccessEnum.html>,
now of Microsoft.
