You are welcome!

 

While fixing the problem I noticed 2 things about the module:

 

1)      It only supports ALLOW DCLs and ignores everything else. Is nobody 
using DENY DCLs?

2)      The Get() function will now return the SID if the account name does not 
exist. Do you ever need to be able to *set* a DCL
using a SID instead of an account name? Currently you won't be able to call 
Get(), modify the returned hash and call Set(). You will
have to remove any SID entries first or Set() will complain.

 

Cheers,

-Jan

Thanks very much, Jan. I've come to rely very heavily on this module.

I've fixed this problem for Win32-FileSecurity-1.08:

 

    http://code.google.com/p/libwin32/source/detail?r=433

 

You should see it show up in the beta PPM repository within 2 days or so:

 

    http://ppm.activestate.com/beta/

 

It will of course also be included in any upcoming ActivePerl releases.

 

Cheers,

Subject: Win32::FileSecurity problem

 

Hi,

 

Has anyone come across an issue with the Win32::FileSecurity module, that ships 
with Perl 10, that causes it to croak when trying to
retrieve DACL for a folder for which one of the trustees is an unknown account 
(i.e account is represented by it's SID instead of
the account name)?

 

This doesn't appear to be an issue with the Win32::FileSecurity module from 
Dave Roth. Unfortunately, Dave Roth's module will only
work with Perl 817 and below.

 

The specific code extract I'm using is:

 

      use Win32::FileSecurity qw(Get EnumerateRights);

      ...

      Get($folder,\%htrustees);

      while (($trustee, $mask) = each %htrustees) {

      ...

 

The script croaks when it calls the Get function, and the error can not be 
trapped. I have tried "eval" to no avail.

 

Any ideas, other than going back to 817, will be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks

Charles
