## We need to do the following steps
###1. Create a home folder if it does not exist
###2. Apply permissions to the folder created
###3. Apply a quota if none exists

## 1. Creating the home folder if it does not exist

Write-Host "home folder path is $homefolderpath"
if ( -Not ( Test-Path -Path $homefolderpath))
{
Write-Host "We need to create folder $homefolderpath"
New-Item -ItemType directory -Path $homefolderpath -force

##2. Apply permissions to the folder created
$permissions = Get-Acl $homefolderpath
$userpermissions = New-Object System.Security.AccessControl.FilesystemAccessRule("$username","Fullcontrol","ContainerInherit,ObjectInherit","None","Allow")
$permissions.AddAccessrule($userpermissions)
Set-Acl $homefolderpath $permissions

###3. Apply a quota ( forcefully ) Two options, one for staff and one for students

if ( $office -eq "Student" ) {
Write-Host "Setting student quota for user $username"
new-fsrmquota $homefolderpath -Template "250 MB Students Report to User"
}
if ( $office -eq "Staff" ) {
Write-Host "Setting staff quota for user $username"
new-fsrmquota $homefolderpath -Template "500 MB Staff Report to User"
}

}

}
}
catch { Write-Host "Account $username is not valid in this system" }
