Script to share a folder in a particular user group!
Hi All,
not sure whether am posting at the right place.
I want to create a script for sharing a folder for a particular user group.
The below given script shares the folder in all the user groups available.
Please suggest the required modification or provide me with a script to restrict it to a particular user group.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Const FILE_SHARE = 0
Const MAXIMUM_CONNECTIONS = 25
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set objNewShare = objWMIService.Get("Win32_Share")
errReturn = objNewShare.Create _
("C:\Finance", "FinanceShare", FILE_SHARE, _
MAXIMUM_CONNECTIONS)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanx in advance.

Hi, Shilpi.
- There is a 'Scripting' forum for this type of question;
- The CreateShare method does just that - it creates a share. If you want to add permissions to it, you need an appropriate tool. I believe our friend SetACL can apply permissions to shares, but don't quote me. Failing that, there is a WMI method. See http://cwashington.netreach.net/depo/view.asp?Index=1068 for details. A Google for 'VBScript +share +permissions' turned up that link, BTW.

Rating comments in this legacy AppDeploy message board thread won't reorder them,so that the conversation will remain readable.
