in reply to How to find the file owner on win32

It's a bit dumb that Win32::FileSecurity doesn't know how to do this. On the other hand, you could always use the ntfsowner module, which will do just what you want.

I did hear an echo that this module is broken on W2K, and that the author can't/won't upgrade it. I think it was sniper who told me this. Message him to be sure.

update: hmm, I just read Guildenstern's comments. I have used the module and it works as advertised. No (particular) need to be concerned about using it just because it doesn't come from CPAN.
