This might sound trite but walking a folder hierarchy shouldn't be  
difficult and assuming you give the Script a manager proxy role it  
shouldn't have any trouble adjusting permissions.


However, this might not be what you want. Assuming the folders aquire  
the permissions of the parent, might it not be simpler to adjust the  
permissions of the highest level folder? This would certainly be the  
most manageable.

You could use the ZopeFind method, which folders inherit from
OFS.FindSupport.FindSupport:

I want to write a script that will traverse a directory tree and
update the View permission on any Folder that meets certain criteria.

Suggestions?
