you can definitely say we are learning more and more about what's underneath in NT.

i will check out the share permissions through WMI tomorrow (still don't have internet at home.. in two months i'm moving so then i'll probably be flooding the board ;-)

It's a shame i need to implement WMI on the servers first. i'll probably implement it on several customers and some of them, are w2k but a bunch are still nt 4 and usually when i opt for new additions like this development starts nagging (we have some fundamental differences in opinion..
.. but that's just for one of the customers.

Is WMI tough install or just a couple of registered dll's ??

ps are you also noticing that the one thing that is hard to code is often the thing that has absolutely no info on the web/example scripts.. or is that by definition ?
