Pipeline input is not accepted. .OUTPUTS [System.String] XML PRTG sensor output .NOTES This code has not been reviewed or audited by a third party This code has limited or no tests It was designed for presenting reports to non-technical management or administrative staff It is convenient for that purpose but it is not recommended for compliance reporting or similar formal uses ToDo: - Currently requires a string for input (the path to a target folder). FileInfo or DirectoryInfo instead? - When Expand-IdentityReference calls Search-Directory it should not do so when the account name is an unresolved SID. Skip the query. - Investigate - FileInfo or DirectoryInfo rather than string for target folder input param. Will a string auto-cast to these types if sent as input? I think it will. Add Test-Path input validation script too. - Investigate - Looks like we are filtering out ignored domains in 2 places? redundant? Why is the IgnoreDomain syntax regex with slashes required? (works but should not be required, that makes no sense) - Investigate - What happens if an ACE contains a SID that is in an object's SID history? - Investigate: Get-WellKnownSid repeatedly creating CIM sessions to same destination. Add debug output suffix "# For $ComputerName" so debug is easier to read - Consider combining PsDfs and ConvertTo-DistinguishedName into a native C# module PsWin32Api - Consider implementing universally the ADsPath format: WinNT://WORKGROUP/SERVER/USER - WinNT://CONTOSO/Administrator for a domain account on a domain-joined server - WinNT://CONTOSO/SERVER123/Administrator for a local account on a domain-joined server - WinNT://WORKGROUP/SERVER123/Administrator for a local account on a workgroup server (not joined to an AD domain) - Bug - Logic Flaw for Owner. - Currently we search folders for non-inherited access rules, then we manually add a FullControl access rule for the Owner. - This misses folders with only inherited access rules but a different owner. - Bug - Doesn't work for AD users' default group/primary group (which is typically Domain Users). - The user's default group is not listed in their memberOf attribute so I need to fix the LDAP search filter to include the primary group attribute. - Bug - For a fake group created by New-FakeDirectoryEntry in the Adsi module, in the report its name will end up as an NT Account (CONTOSO\User123). - If it is a fake user, its name will correctly appear without the domain prefix (User123) - Bug - Fix bug in PlatyPS New-MarkdownHelp with multi-line param descriptions (?and example help maybe affected also?). - When provided the same comment-based help as input, Get-Help respects the line breaks but New-MarkdownHelp does not. - New-MarkdownHelp generates an inaccurate markdown representation by converting multiple lines to a single line. - Declared as wontfix https://github.com/PowerShell/platyPS/issues/314 - Need to fix it myself and submit a PR because that makes no sense - Until then, workaround is to include markdown syntax in PowerShell comment-based help - That is why there are so many extra blank lines and unordered lists in the commented metadata in this script - Feature - List any excluded accounts at the end - Feature - Remove all usage of Add-Member to improve performance (create new pscustomobjects instead, nest original object inside) - Feature - Parameter to specify properties to include in report - Feature - This script does NOT account for individual file permissions. Only folder permissions are considered. - Feature - This script does NOT account for file share permissions. Only NTFS permissions are considered. - Feature - Support ACLs from Registry or AD objects - Feature - Parameter to retrieve entire group membership chain - Feature - Parameter to retrieve entire directory of known directories, cache in memory. Faster? - Feature - Implement Send-MailKitMessage module .EXAMPLE Export-Permission.ps1 -TargetPath C:\Test Generate reports on the NTFS permissions for the folder C:\Test and all subfolders .EXAMPLE Export-Permission.ps1 -TargetPath C:\Test -ExcludeAccount 'BUILTIN\\Administrator' Generate reports on the NTFS permissions for the folder C:\Test and all subfolders Exclude the built-in Administrator account from the HTML report The ExcludeAccount parameter uses RegEx, so the \ in BUILTIN\Administrator needed to be escaped. The RegEx escape character is \ so that is why the regular expression needed for the parameter is 'BUILTIN\\Administrator' .EXAMPLE Export-Permission.ps1 -TargetPath C:\Test -ExcludeAccount @( 'BUILTIN\\Administrators', 'BUILTIN\\Administrator', 'CREATOR OWNER', 'NT AUTHORITY\\SYSTEM' ) Generate reports on the NTFS permissions for the folder C:\Test and all subfolders Exclude from the HTML report: - The built-in Administrator account - The built-in Administrators group and its members (unless they appear elsewhere in the permissions) - The CREATOR OWNER security principal - The computer account (NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM) Note: CREATOR OWNER will still be reported as an alarm in the PRTG XML output .EXAMPLE Export-Permission.ps1 -TargetPath C:\Test -ExcludeEmptyGroups Generate reports on the NTFS permissions for the folder C:\Test and all subfolders Exclude empty groups from the HTML report (leaving accounts only) .EXAMPLE Export-Permission.ps1 -TargetPath C:\Test -IgnoreDomain 'CONTOSO' Generate reports on the NTFS permissions for the folder C:\Test and all subfolders Remove the CONTOSO domain prefix from associated accounts and groups .EXAMPLE Export-Permission.ps1 -TargetPath C:\Test -IgnoreDomain 'CONTOSO1','CONTOSO2' Generate reports on the NTFS permissions for the folder C:\Test and all subfolders Remove the CONTOSO1\ and CONTOSO2\ domain prefixes from associated accounts and groups Across the two domains, accounts with the same samAccountNames will be considered equivalent Across the two domains, groups with the same Names will be considered equivalent .EXAMPLE Export-Permission.ps1 -TargetPath C:\Test -LogDir C:\Logs Generate reports on the NTFS permissions for the folder C:\Test and all subfolders Redirect logs and output files to C:\Logs instead of the default location in AppData .EXAMPLE Export-Permission.ps1 -TargetPath C:\Test -LevelsOfSubfolders 0 Generate reports on the NTFS permissions for the folder C:\Test only (no subfolders) .EXAMPLE Export-Permission.ps1 -TargetPath C:\Test -LevelsOfSubfolders 2 Generate reports on the NTFS permissions for the folder C:\Test Only include subfolders to a maximum of 2 levels deep (C:\Test\Level1\Level2) .EXAMPLE Export-Permission.ps1 -TargetPath C:\Test -Title 'New Custom Report Title' Generate reports on the NTFS permissions for the folder C:\Test and all subfolders Change the title of the HTML report to 'New Custom Report Title' .EXAMPLE Export-Permission.ps1 -TargetPath '\\ad.contoso.com\DfsNamespace\DfsFolderWithTarget' The target path is a DFS folder with folder targets Generate reports on the NTFS permissions for the DFS folder targets associated with this path .EXAMPLE Export-Permission.ps1 -TargetPath '\\ad.contoso.com\DfsNamespace\DfsFolderWithoutTarget\DfsSubfolderWithoutTarget\DfsSubfolderWithTarget' The target path is a DFS subfolder with folder targets Generate reports on the NTFS permissions for the DFS folder targets associated with this path .EXAMPLE Export-Permission.ps1 -TargetPath '\\ad.contoso.com\DfsNamespace\DfsFolderWithoutTarget\DfsSubfolderWithoutTarget\DfsSubfolderWithTarget\Subfolder' The target path is a subfolder of a DFS subfolder with folder targets Generate reports on the NTFS permissions for the DFS folder targets associated with this path .EXAMPLE Export-Permission.ps1 -TargetPath '\\ad.contoso.com\' This is an edge case that is not currently supported The target path is the root of an AD domain Generate reports on the NTFS permissions for ?
