[<CommonParameters>] Description
The Remove-DfsnAccess cmdlet removes users and groups from the access control list (ACL) for a Distributed File System (DFS) namespace folder. When you remove a user from an ACL, the current permissions in the ACL may still allow that user to access the folder.
For more information about DFS namespaces, see Overview of DFS Namespaces on TechNet.
Examples
Example 1: Remove a user from the ACL for a folder
Remove-DfsnAccess -Path '\\Contoso\Software\Projects' -AccountName 'TSQA\PattiFuller'This command removes the user TSQA\PattiFuller from the access control list of
\\Contoso\Software\Projects.
Parameters
-AccountName
Specifies an array of user and group accounts. This cmdlet removes the accounts specified from the ACL of a DFS namespace folder.
| Type: | String[] |

-AsJob
Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.
The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command
prompt. You can continue to work in the session while the job completes. To manage the job, use the
*-Job cmdlets. To get the job results, use the
Receive-Job cmdlet.
For more information about Windows PowerShell background jobs, see about_Jobs.
