NOTES





The previous syntax for the same task, ((Get-SmbShare ????????Name <ShareName> ).PresetPathACL | Set-Acl), continues to work with newer versions of the

Windows Server operating system, but the new syntax is much simpler and therefore recommended.



Example 1: Set the SMB path ACL by share name



PS C:\\> Set-SmbPathAcl -ShareName "Share01"



This command sets the ACL on the file system folder used by the Share01 share to match the ACL of the share.





Example 2: Set the SMB path ACL by share name and scope name



PS C:\\> Set-SmbPathAcl -ShareName "Share01" -ScopeName "SOFS01"



This command sets the ACL on the file system folder used by the Share01 share on the SOFS01 scope to match the ACL of the share.
