Powershell Script to Share a Folder, Set NTFS and Share Permissions and Make it a Virtual Directory in IIS

David Holland 1

I am looking to create a share, set NTFS and Share Permissions and then make it a Virtual Directory in IIS.

This is something I repetitively do with my job, but all by hand.

Here are the current permissions:

c:\program files\landesk\managementsuite\ldlogon
FRM-EPMCORE-01\LANDesk Management Suite:(RX)
FRM-EPMCORE-01\LANDesk Management Suite:(OI)(CI)(IO)(GR,GE)
FRM-EPMCORE-01\LANDesk Administrators:(OI)(CI)(F)
BUILTIN\Administrators:(OI)(CI)(F)
NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(OI)(CI)(F)
NT AUTHORITY\IUSR:(RX)
NT AUTHORITY\IUSR:(OI)(CI)(IO)(GR,GE)
Everyone:(RX)
Everyone:(OI)(CI)(IO)(GR,GE)
NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE:(OI)(CI)(F)

I want the share permissions to be the same as the NTFS permissions.

So to clarify, I want to do the following:

Create a Share (We'll call it Distribution) pointing to C:\Distribution
Set Share Permissions and NTFS permissions as shown above
Create a Virtual Directory in IIS named "Distribution" pointing to C:\Distribution

Huge thanks in advance to the guru that knows how to do this!

In the long run, you will be better off if you learn how to use search sites like Bing and Google and look for examples of the functions that you want to perform. It may take you a bit longer, but you will expand your knowledge. If you hit a roadblock, then show us what commands you are executing, what errors you get, or explain what you don't understand.

Hint, you are not restricted to use only cmdlet's in a Powershell script. You can run programs like net.exe, icacls.exe and appcmd.exe.
