Syntax
Revoke-DfsnAccess
[-Path] <String>
[-AccountName] <String[]>
[-CimSession <CimSession[]>]
[-ThrottleLimit <Int32>]
[-AsJob]
[-WhatIf]
[-Confirm]
[<CommonParameters>] Description
The Revoke-DfsnAccess cmdlet revokes permissions for users and groups to access and enumerate the contents of a Distributed File System (DFS) namespace folder. You can use the Get-DfsnAccess cmdlet to see the current permissions, and you can use the Grant-DfsnAccess cmdlet to grant permissions.
For a DFS namespace which has Access-based Enumeration enabled, users can see only the folders that they can access.
For more information about DFS namespaces, see Overview of DFS Namespaces on TechNet.
Examples
Example 1: Revoke permissions for a user
Revoke-DfsnAccess -Path '\\Contoso\Software\Projects' -AccountName 'TSQA\PattiFuller'
AccessType : none
AccountName : TSQA\PattiFuller
NamespacePath : "\\Contoso\Software\Projects
PSComputerName :This command revokes permissions to access and view the contents of the DFS namespace folder
\\Contoso\Software\Projects for a specified user.
Parameters
-AccountName
Specifies an array of user and group accounts. This cmdlet revokes permissions for the accounts specified.

-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.

-ThrottleLimit
Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If
this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an
optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the
computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the
