How to find who is sharing folders
A new manager (on a single PO system) asked for a list of users who
have:
- Granted others Proxy access
- Are using rules
- Are sharing folders
The first two are easy enough
1) run a GWCheck Analyze/Fix Contents with verbose logging (takes a
bit longer than normal Contents but has a MUCH larger output, about 30+
times the size)
2) on a system with egrep
egrep "user =|Access granted" content.log >proxy.txt
egrep "user =|RULE_RECORD" content.log >rulzusrs.txt
but the shared folders just don't show there in that most logical
place, nor can I find them anywhere else. Anyone have any ideas of
where else a list of users with Shared folders could be extracted?

Not sure exactly when this was added, but should be in later releases. There is an REST API endpoint for a user to tell you how many shared folders the user has. This was added so that if you delete a user that has shared a folder, you will get prompted what to do.
the REST endpoint is
https://10.10.10.10:9710/gwadmin-service/domains/mydom/postoffices/mypo/users/abbynormal/sharedfolders
the return is:
<sharedFolders xmlns:ns2="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom">
<sharedFolderCount>3</sharedFolderCount>
</sharedFolders>
--Morris

Beautiful, it is there in 14.2.2-126868
I tried to be fancy with a wildcard * for the user name to see if it
would do them all, but <sigh> that didn't do the trick <sigh>
Just means we have to hit each one at a time, or rustle up a programmer.
At least it is another reason to get that particular client to upgrade as
they are still on 2012.
