Is there a tool to move permissions after a domain migration?

I've already completed all of the prerequisites for a smooth transition from an NT4 Domain to a Win2K3 AD Domain, such as User, Group and password migration. Shares are still accessible because SID History was also migrated. I still have the two-way trust in place, so users can still access shares. I know that once the old domain "goes away", users will no longer be able to access shares on resource servers, so I've begun the long, manual tedious process of "Re-ACLing" permissions by adding appropriate Groups and individual users from the new domain. There must be a tool out there that will do this, correct? Any information is greatly appreciated?
