getting directory permissions
#1
Hello,
I have a task to visit the corporate file server from my PC from time to time and check the directories for the permissions. I can do it easily by entering \\server\directory to the explorer then go to the properties of a folder, then look up at permissions for every user that has an access to this folder.

I want to automate this task by writing a script. PowerShell or VBscript via WMI will not work as far as I have no administration rights on the file server.

So the question is... What module should I use to reach the goal. The module should help me to parse the folder permissions on the dedicated file server without using WMI and admin priveleges. (like the file explorer does).

Appreciate any help.
