Yesterday I posted a function to create a summary report of ACL information<\/a> using Windows PowerShell. I posted this in response to a question in the Ask Don and Jeff<\/a> forum at PowerShell.com. I received an appreciative followup. The next step for this IT Pro it seems is to get a detailed list of the user based access control entries. Here is some of my response.<\/p>\n

What you are experiencing is both the pleasure and pain of PowerShell. You can get to some amazing information, but sometimes it is buried deeply and takes a little work to unwind. Assuming you have my function loaded in your shell, try this on a small test folder.<\/p>\n


\ndir c:\\work -recurse | Where {$_.PSIsContainer} |
\nget-aclinfo | Where {$_.UserAcl -gt 0} |
\nForEach {
\n $path=$_.Path
\n $_ | select -expand accessrules |
\n where {$_.identityreference -notmatch \"BUILTIN|NT AUTHORITY|EVERYONE|CREATOR OWNER\"} |
\n Select @{Name=\"Path\";Expression={$Path}},IdentityReference,FileSystemRights
\n}
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

The first part command, DIR, gets goes through C:\\Work recursively. These objects are piped to Where-Object which only keeps containers, i.e. folders. These folder objects are then piped to my Get-ACLInfo function. Its results are then piped to another Where-Object to filter out anything that doesn't have a UserACL value greater than 0. <\/p>\n

Now it gets a little trickier. I want to display both the file path and get at the underlying, nested access rules. So I'll pipe each of my aclinfo objects to ForEach-Object. The first thing I do is save the path property from the incoming object. Then I pipe the object to Select-Object, expanding the Accessrules property. Remember, this is a collection of accessrule objects. <\/p>\n

These in turn are filtered again to weed out the system accounts. You could also modify the filter to match say on a domain name or specific username. Finally, the filtered results are piped to Select-Object which shows the username, their rights, and a custom property that uses the saved Path variable.<\/p>\n

Here's what the end result looks like:<\/p>\n


\nPath IdentityReference FileSystemRights
\n---- ----------------- ----------------
\nC:\\work\\foo SERENITY\\fooby FullControl
\nC:\\work\\foo\\test SERENITY\\fooby FullControl
\nC:\\work\\foo\\test1 SERENITY\\fooby FullControl
\nC:\\work\\foo\\test2 SERENITY\\fooby FullControl
\nC:\\work\\foo\\test1\\foo SERENITY\\fooby FullControl
\nC:\\work\\foo\\test1\\foo2 SERENITY\\fooby FullControl
\nC:\\work\\foo\\test1\\foo3 SERENITY\\fooby FullControl
\nC:\\work\\foo\\test2\\bar SERENITY\\fooby FullControl
\nC:\\work\\foo\\test2\\bar2 SERENITY\\fooby FullControl
\n<\/code>
\nIn reality though, you could probably skip my function altogether since all you want are the underlying access rules. Here's a variation that uses Get-ACL.<\/p>\n


\ndir c:\\work -recurse | Where {$_.PSIsContainer} | get-acl |
\nForEach {
\n [regex]$regex=\"\\w:\\\\\\S+\"
\n $path=$regex.match($_.Path).Value
\n $_ | select -expand access |
\n where {$_.identityreference -notmatch \"BUILTIN|NT AUTHORITY|EVERYONE|CREATOR OWNER\"} |
\n Select @{Name=\"Path\";Expression={$Path}},IdentityReference,FileSystemRights
\n}
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

The logic is essentially the same except I threw in my regex code to make the folder path easier to read. Otherwise you get a path value like Microsoft.PowerShell.Core\\FileSystem::C:\\scripts\\. I'll admit this is a bit much to get your head around, especially for people still starting out in PowerShell. But I hope my logical explanation helps.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
