If I'm correct, you want the script to open the file and print just the permissions listing for the directory. The following will work:
use strict;
use warnings;
open(IN, "xcacls.txt") or die "Cant open file: $!\n";
##### Puts file into $_ all at once, rather than just a
##### line at a time.
$_ = do { local $/; <IN> };
##### Matches the section bounded by lines of 74 *'s
##### that has Directory: in its first line.
m/\*{74}\n(Directory: .*?)\*{74}/s;
##### Print the first part of the match (the first
##### section in parentheses)
print $1;
close(IN);

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
