Shared folder permissions 17 June 2020, 16:53

Hi,
I have recently started using the network scanner for share audits. However, whenever I run the tool, all shares with AD / Group permissions are coming as blank for both share folder readers and writers. Is there a solution for that?

This feature works by reading NTFS permissions, reading shared folder permissions, and then combining them to compute the effective permissions. Unfortunately, it doesn't always work well, say if reading NTFS permissions fails for some reason, there would be no result shown.

I recommend trying ShareEnum free utility from Sysinternals/Microsoft to see if it shows better details for those shares.
