Hi all,

short question .... how to make a newly installed folder a share?

I have to set a few directory shares after xcopyed the directory tree onto the target machine.

thanks in advance,
Thomas

Hi ,

I think you need to create a Custom action with vbscript. and run the CA after the Xcopy.

please let me know if you need the script for sharing the folder.

i hope this help you.

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, "Public share for the Finance group.")
