You can use Share and Storage Management to view and modify the properties of a shared folder or volume, including the local NTFS permissions and the network access permissions for that shared resource.

Membership in Administrators, or equivalent, is the minimum required to complete this procedure. Review details about using the appropriate accounts and group memberships at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=83477.

  1. On the Shares tab, click the Server Message Block (SMB) or Network File System (NFS) shared folder or volume for which you want to view or modify properties.

  2. In the Actions pane, click Properties.

  3. Modify settings as appropriate, and then click OK.
