I can create a folder, edit the NTFS permissions, share the folder, but what I haven't found yet is something that will edit the share permissions. I wish to remove the everyone group from the share and add two users with full share permissions. I will settle for doing it in a .bat or .vbs.

does xcalcs handle this?
how about the adssecurity.dll? or how about an ADSI script?
 
xcalcs only handles NTFS permissions (same as calcs.exe), not share permissions.
adssecurity.dll? I have read articles about detrimental effects using it and have found no reference to editing share permissions to a folder share.
I have looked at all the scripting I can find made available by the microsoft scripting guys and have yet to see any reference to share permissions.

As you can see, I have looked before posting. It just surprises me that microsoft has not considered this would come up.

thank you, mrmovie. I just found that today as well on and was going to post it here and you beat me to the punch. I'm hoping this will do the trick. BTW, I did find in another post that the share permissions are stored in the registry at:

hklm\system\currentcontrolset\services\lanmanserver\shares
