Let's make sure I understand your question... You want to create a new share on the Win2K Server programatically with VBScript using WMI calls (ADSI doesn't apply here)? If so here's an example direct from Microsoft: [b]Create a Network Share[/b] [i]Description[/i] Creates a shared folder named FinanceShare, setting the maximum number of simultaneous connections to 25, and adding a share description. [i]Script Code [/i] [CourierNew]Const FILE_SHARE = 0 Const MAXIMUM_CONNECTIONS = 25 strComputer = "." Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _ & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2") Set objNewShare = objWMIService.Get("Win32_Share") errReturn = objNewShare.Create _ ("C:\Finance", "FinanceShare", FILE_SHARE, _ MAXIMUM_CONNECTIONS, "Public share for the Finance group.") Wscript.Echo errReturn[/CourierNew] All sorts of scripting examples can be found at the TechNet Script Center: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/scriptcenter/default.asp

Not sure on how to set the permissions via WMI. Download the Scriptomatic tool from Microsoft and have a look through the different APIs available. As for using it from a Macintosh, as long as the Macs and PCs are both using the same network protocol (TCP/IP, IPX, etc) then the Macs should be able to see the share automatically (Macs support SMB by default).
