I got this to work... just FYI: s = 'O:owner_sidG:group_sidD:dacl_flags(string_ace1)(string_ace2)...(string_acen)S:sacl_flags(string_ace1)(string_ace2)...(string_acen)'
SD = {}
S = str.split(s, 'S:')
SD['S_ACL'] = S[1]
D = str.split(S[0], 'D:')
SD['D_ACL'] = D[1]
G = str.split(D[0], 'G:')
SD['G_SID'] = G[1]
O = str.split(G[0], 'O:')
SD['O_SID'] = O[1]
for k,v in SD.iteritems():
print k,v
