Well, for OS X, you can get the permissions by scripting the shell using the
"ls" command on the file(s) in question and then parsing the result. (See
http://www.zzee.com/solutions/unix-permissions.shtml for more details.)

For Windows servers, I'm not so sure how to get this info, although you can
get the owner for each file with 'dir /q' through the shell...
