Creating directories

[jdahlheimer]

I am wondering if vb.net is the best solution for this. I would like a login script that goes out checks to see if a user has a network directory if they do then put a shortcut on their desktop for it. If they don't it needs to create the directory and assign specific permissions to the folder bascially only them and administrator can see the folder. I have tried making this with a bat file but they don't seem to be able to assign permissions to the folders. So if vb.net is a good solution does anyone have any good rescources on creating and altering directories as I have never even looked at vb before today. Thanks.

You would probably be better off asking on forum329, the VBScript forum. Similar requests are often being asked and solutions provided.


Hope this helps.

I thought script files use the permission of the user that runs the script (or login scripts use the login account namespace), either case they shouldn't have permission to change user rights (allows mal-script).

And yes batch files = vbscript forum.
