I know we discussed this before and I believe this feature was added in the
last build....
How do I set "Permissions" on a network share? I know we can set
permissions under the security tab on the directory's properties but what
about share permissions?
Thanks,
Don

The SB help says "It is not possible to configure permissions with the
NetShareAdd API on Windows! "
You could instead use the command line (or run a batch file) to create the
share and set the share permissions.
NET SHARE C:\MYDATAFOLDER /GRANT:Everyone,full
Use SB to set the NTFS permissions on the folder.
Note that this may be an issue on non-English Windows machines. I don't
know how to use NET SHARE with SIDs instead of actual user or group names.

references a tool called rmtshare.exe, with which I have no personal
experience:
