O'Holly Ones,

I have written the script below to obtain user/group permission information, then I split the 'permissionees' into groups or users. It works (in terms of extracting the information), however, If I grant a local group access permission, the script will detect the changes but it leaves the field "account" empty. It only does this with local groups. example, if I grant the user john, the global group G_group1 and the local group l_group1 access permission to a remote drive (lets say g$) then I get an output like this:

This '' is a group account

This 'john' is a user account

Has anyone came across similar problem? Your replyies are highly appreciated.

use strict;
use Win32::NetResource;
use Win32::AdminMisc;
use Win32::NetAdmin;
use Win32::Perms;
my $drive = shift @ARGV;
my $srv;
my $path;
my $perms;
if (Win32::NetResource::GetUNCName( $path,$drive))
{
    $path =~ /^\\\\(\w+)/;
    $srv = $&;
    print "\nServer  " . $srv . "\n";
}
$perms = new Win32::Perms($path) || die "\n$^E\n";
print "\nPath: " . $perms->Path() . "\n";
my $intgr = $perms->Get(\ my @perms);
foreach my $permy (@perms)
{
    while (my ($field, $data) = each %{$permy})
    {
        next if $field !~ /account/i;
        if (Win32::NetAdmin::UsersExist('',$data))
        {
            print "This '$data' is a user account\n";
        }
        else
        {
            print "This '$data' is a group account\n";
        }        
    }
    print "\n\n";
}
