get-acl 'Inherited From'

PowerShell Help
1

I am trying to find for each ACE how to determine where it’s permissions are inherited from. I cant seem to find the actual folder it is inherited from in get-acl…

Here is a pic to better illustrate what i’m talking about…Image

You need to walk up the tree and find all not inherited permissions.
and then analyze it
something like that

function Get-NotInheritedACL($Path) {
	Get-Acl -Path $path |
	 Select-Object -ExpandProperty Access |
	 Where-Object { -Not $_.IsInherited } |
	 Foreach-Object {
		[PSCustomObject]@{
			Path = $Path
			Access = $_
		}
	}
	$parent = Split-Path $Path
	if ($parent) {
		Get-NotInheritedACL $parent
	}
}

Get-NotInheritedACL 'C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\'
