Re: What are your favorite apps and utilities?

Since I have been working on moving three servers from OS9 on Appleshare Servers to XServes with OS X I am a big fan of the two apps mentioned below:

Batchmod

From the website:
"Its simple and elegant
It allows one to change any specific privilege or ownership without affecting the other (ie, changing the group without affecting the owner, or adding or removing a specific privilege without affecting all the others).
It can recursively affect enclosed folders.
It can Force Empty the Trash, even when it contains locked files!
It's extremely free! "

The other utility is DropNuke

You can delete any file that was locked under OS9. This has been a bit of a problem especially for those moving from OS9 Servers to OSX Servers.
