How to modify share permission using C#?

Hi, I'm also trying to modify the share permission using C#. Did you fing something? The code below (WMI) permits to share a folder but with full control cause the Access parameters is set to "null": System.Management.ManagementScope sc = null; ConnectionOptions co = null; sc = new ManagementScope(@"\ROOT\CIMV2", co); sc.Connect(); ManagementBaseObject inParams = null; ManagementClass classObj = new ManagementClass(sc, new ManagementPath("Win32_Share"), null); inParams = classObj.GetMethodParameters("Create"); inParams["Access"] = null;// default Security descriptor used //inParams["Description"] = "Shared"; //inParams["MaximumAllowed"] = 10; inParams["Name"] = "Shared"; //inParams["Password"] = "password"; inParams["Path"] = @"c:\Temp"; inParams["Type"] = 0; // Disk drive 0, print queue 1 ManagementBaseObject outParams = classObj.InvokeMethod("Create", inParams, null);
