Jim,

Like I said, your code seems to work fine. But it only works when the Lock button on the bottom left is in its unlocked state... which makes sense. Is there a way through Applescript to lock and unlock that button? I'd prefer to keep the panel locked until I'm ready to turn off file sharing via script. At that point, I'd want to unlock the panel via script. Then once file sharing has been turned off, re- lock the panel. Do you know how to do this?

Thanks.
Richard

This is the way I am familiar with. The security issues can be tricky since
this could run without the users knowledge.

--------------Applescript code:----------------------

do shell script "/usr/sbin/AppleFileServer" password "x" with administrator
privileges

Turning off with:
do shell script "/usr/bin/killall AppleFileServer" password "x" with
administrator privileges
---------------------------------------------
"x" is your administrator password!

Anyone know how I can use Rev to turn on/off file sharing on a Mac? I
can't quite put my finger on the Applescript commands that would do
this.

Thanks.
