Peace on all,
I have written this script below, which (supposedly) assigns user full access permission to all folders and sub folders including files from a given target location (say drive D$ or a folder like c:\dir\sub_dir.etc). Once I run the script I immediately go to the target location by Explorer, right click on target location, go to properties, then security and I can see the ACE entry that then script has created. When I click on the advanced button in the security tab, and I can see the ace entry with the following attributes:
Type:Allow, Name: Usr_foo, Permission: Full Control, Apply to: This folder, subfolders and files.
However, when I check the security tabs of any subfolders within the targeted location, I do not see the name of the user I have just granted full access at all listed?? Does anyone know an explanation for this please? Or tell me what am I doing wrong
use strict ‘vars’;
use Win32::Perms;
my  $prms = new Win32::Perms(“\\\\server1\\d$\\”) || die “$!, $^E\n”;
print $prms->Path();
if ($prms->Allow(‘User_foo’, FULL | FULL, OBJECT_INHERIT_ACE | CONTAIN
+ER_INHERIT_ACE))
{
    print “\nDone\n”;
    $prms->Set();
}
$prms->Dump;
