In the days of ASP we would use the PermissionChecker Object. Here is a
code snippet that I was experimenting with about 5 months ago.
<codebehind snippet>
PermissionCheckerClass pmck = new
PermissionChecker.PermissionCheckerClass();
bool joe;
try
{
joe = pmck.HasAccess("/AuthProof6/WebForm2.aspx");
}
catch (System.InvalidCastException err)
{
Response.Write ("<BR><HR>" + err.Message + "<BR>" +
"<hr><br>");
joe = false;
}
if (joe != true)
{
HyperLink1.Visible = false;
}
</codebehind snippet>
The bad part about this was that I had to set aspCompat="True" in the
page directive. PermissionChecker is marked both in the registry for
threading but I would receive an error each time I tried to exercise the
object in a page with out aspCompat="True" set. The com component is
located in C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\PermChk.dll.
Maybe someone out there has a better way. I never got a chance to
research this anymore. Eventually it will come back up.

Subject: [DOTNET] dynamically determining which roles have access to a
folder/file
Is there a way to determine which roles have access to a directory? You
can
set that a given folder can only be accessed by, for example, Manager or
Employee, is there a way to examine a directory and tell which roles
have
access?
Thanks.
Bob.
