Is it possible to set NTFS permissions using VBScript? Perhaps using WMI?

Yes it is possible, You can use cacl or xcacls to set permissions. These utilities can be found in the resource kits. You would have to set a shell environment and call them with either the run or execute method.

Hope this helps,
