This is sort of a two-pronged question.
I am developing an application that will need to be able to create network shares in Windows Server 2003 via the command line. So, firstly, how do I create shares in Windows via the command line? I tried researching it, and all I was able to find is that I should be using net
, but other than that, there isn't much documentation.
Also, in this share there will be a few directories with the names of users on the domain, and I would like for the directories to not be readable or writable by anyone else. For example, say I have two directories: jsmith
and jdoe
. I would like the user jsmith
to write and read from the directory jsmith
, but not the directory called jdoe
, and vice versa.

This should be the information that you are looking for:
You can also remove permissions, or edit permissions on the directory using cacls.exe. My recommendation would be to read up on cacls.exe
Cacls

or just "cacls /?" from the command line should work as well.
