“I am an amateur programmer” 
By day I’m a BOFH-wannabe Systems Engineer working for an entertainment company.
By night, I express my frustrations as Python, VBScript, and PHP code – and believe me, it shows. Beware reading any code I post, as it may make your eye’s bleed.
Sigh… working on hacking XCACLS.vbs to display the SID if the username is null. Thought it would be easy, just pluck out the user SID and use the standard Mueller convert stuff.
The subroutine is Sub DisplayThisACL (I’d post it but the MS stuff is 4,000+ lines). MS code creates an objTrustee object, and objTrustee.SID returns an array that looks like a SID, but when I pass it to the my standard Mueller convert code and I get a type mismatch from the array that is being parsed with the code subtantially similar to what you posted. If you are interested, I will send you the code. Thanks.
