Make a shared folder using labview

How to make a shared folder in labview ?

with read only premissions.

[Todd_Lesher]

There is a "Set Permissions" primitive in the File I/O palette. For sharing (on Windows), you could use the command line "net share" command with "System Exec.vi".

Dear Todd

net share makes the folder shared with access to everyone in full control mode.

What i wanted was, make a folder ( C:\DB ) shared with access to one user (ex: ec4844) inside the network in full access or read/write access mode.

I tried all methods, but could not find a solution.

Please help

How about Icacls?

Dear Todd

I am using windows XP and this command is not functioning in it.

The other tool predating Icacls was cacls. Not sure if it was on Windows XP too. The page here only specifies Windows 7 and up.
