Ok, this is what happens. Your code fails for me in create_share, because the folders don't exist. So I changed it to this: def create_share (system, share_info): path = share_info['path'].replace(':','$') r_dir = r'\\{0}\{1}'.format(system, path) if not os.path.exists(r_dir): os.makedirs(r_dir) win32net.NetShareAdd(system, 2, share_info) Now that works, and creates the share. But the permission are totally screwed. Here is an example: On the existing server we have a share named: FINANCE_FSI Groups that are allowed access to this folder are: CCBH_OU_Admins CCBH_Finance Managed_Care There are no other groups, no administrator or users. No standard group name shows in the security tab. Also, the share permissions and the actual folder have the same permissions. Now when recreated on the new server the groups are: Administrator Creator_Owner System Users Not sure if my changes caused the problems with the groups. -- Rod Person http://www.rodperson.com rodper...@rodperson.com 'Silence is a fence around wisdom' _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
