Hello,
I would like to be able to grant access to setup share folder to a user. His
primary role will only be setting up shares in a server, nothing more. Is
this possible to do in Windows 2000 Server environment?

I'm including him in a User group level access to the server. however, with
such access level, he cant setup share folders. is there anyway to accomplish
this without giving him too much rights to change configuration?

thanks
 
RE: setting someone with Share rights

I found the text below in a XP client.

"You must be a member of the Administrators or Power Users group to use
Shared Folders."

I believe it's the same in 2000. It's worth testing it.

thank you!
the sharing tab doesn't appear for someone with User rights to the server.
i'm thinking of an alternative
