Changing Multiple share Permissions 1

[secureops]

Hi

I have a server that has a whack of shared folders. I would like to add the administrator account to each of them. The previous admin only allowed user accounts with Full Control. Is there a command line tool that i can use to do this? I have tried subinacl but is does not work on NT 4.0.

Thanks
Paul

I've seen some VB scripts that other admins use to manage security.

the place to start looking is Microsoft "scripting Guy"

Actually, a little digging and I found this solution. It worked perfectly.

RMTSHARE \\servername\sharename$ Grant domain\Administrator:Full

Working with a share list I dumped it into Excel, tidied it up then created a CMD file. . Took 5 seconds and 100 shares were fixed.
