Removing "servername\users" permission from multiple folders.
A couple of days ago I had opened another question and found solution partially as follow (bolded)
dir /b >c:\users.txt
for /f %i in (c:\users.txt) do cacls %i /E /C /R "Authenticated users"
Now I need to remove Servername\Users with similar way but the following code did not work.
for /f %i in (c:\folders.txt) do cacls %i /E /C /R "Servername\Users"
So how can I remove Servername\Users permisson from all folders which they are not inherited.

Try preceeding the "Servername" with a double backslash: \\

I just read the other thread to see what was going on. After reading that and re-reading this one I think maybe this Microsoft KB might help:

Hi pony10us,
No it wasnt reverse. Look carefully and compare please
cacls %i /E /C /R "servername\users"
cacls Home /T /E /R Users

cacls Home /T /E /R Users
Okay, I see a difference in switches used:
Added:
/T Changes ACLs of specified files in
the current directory and all subdirectories.
Removed:
/C Continue on access denied errors.
