Jeff-
 
The granularity is exactly what I need.  There has to be a way that .Net can produce this granularity. 
 
Check out xcalcs.vbs from Microsoft...

I don't know if there is a way to get that level of granular detail with .NET.  But you can certainly filter:

PS C:\test> (get-acl c:\test).Access | Where {$_.identityreference -match "Lucky"}


FileSystemRights  : Modify, Synchronize
AccessControlType : Allow
IdentityReference : chaos\lucky
IsInherited       : False
InheritanceFlags  : ContainerInherit, ObjectInherit
PropagationFlags  : None

That is ok, but I am more looking for a nice pretty way to display something like the following
 
Also, Can I filter based on IdentityReference like -Where $_.Identityreference = "Name"

see if this helps:

Function Get-Access {
param([string]$file)
    $var=(Get-Acl $file).Access
    write $file.ToUpper()
    write $var
 }

I have been picking my brain for a few hours on the best way to do this.

 
I just need to report on two folders and their NTFS Permisssions that they have on a constant basis.
 
I reviewed Microsoft released xcalcs.vbs file, but I would prefer to use powershell and possibly get-acl on the folder.
 
I have been messing around with the get-acl cmdlet, but I am not getting pretty output.
 
I am assuming we can take all the ntfs permissions and use Switch within a function to display like
 
BuiltIN\Administrators - Read,Execute,TakeOwnership.
 
Is that possible?
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks

I'm not saying it will be easy but it will be worth it in the long run. If you need to learn something you're better off spending the time learning the tool you will need to learn eventually.

By the way in PowerShell you need a space between CD and .. because CD is an alias for the Set-Location cmdlet and .. is the parameter.  Trust me, you'll be glad you took the time to learn PowerShell.

Thanks for the advice.  So keep enumeration and map if not exist.  Thanks.]]> Thu, 21 Aug 2008 08:47:04 +0000 http://www.scriptinganswers.com/forum2/forum_posts.asp?TID=2186&PID=11349#11349 Command-Line : Newbie help would be appreciated greatly http://www.scriptinganswers.com/forum2/forum_posts.asp?TID=2181&PID=11348#11348 Author: ayaz465

Windows PowerShell is free from Microsoft.
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/technologies/management/powershell/default.mspx

It runs on Windows XP and later and requires the .NET Framework 2.0 or later.

You're not going to learn it in a day or so but once you start getting the hang of it I think you'll realize how powerful and flexible it is.  There's a lot of books and training material out there, including stuff from SAPIEN.  I think PrimalScript 2007 now ships with a free PowerShell training video.
