Help with Windows shares

Guest

I'm trying to change the status of some shared folders in Windows 2000. For
example I have 35 shared folders and I need to change the status of these
shares to uncheck the option of "Allow inheritable permissions from parent to
propagate to this object." Curious if anyone has a way to do this other than
share by share basis. I'm look for a way to change multiple shares at a
time. Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks,
Wes

Inheritance is a property of NTFS permissions. It has nothing
to do with shares. Use cacls.exe from the Command Prompt
to modify the NTFS permissions of a group of folders.
