In tip 3360, I described how to remotely share a resource in any Windows NT-based operating system.
Microsoft has placed the RMTShare.exe program on their FTP site at ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/bussys/winnt/winnt-public/reskit/nt40/i386/RMTSHAR.EXE.
After downloading RMTSHAR.EXE, double-click it to extract the Readme.txt and Rmtshare.exe files. Copy Rmtshare.exe to a folder in your path.
NOTE: The RMTSHARE syntax is:
RMTSHARE \server \serversharename \serversharename=drive:path [/USERS:number | /UNLIMITED] [/REMARK:"text"] [/GRANT [user[:perm][ /GRANT user[:perm]]]] [/REMOVE user] \serversharename=printername /PRINTER [/USERS:number | /UNLIMITED] [/REMARK:"text"] [/GRANT [user[:perm][ /GRANT user[:perm]]]] [/REMOVE user] \serversharename [/USERS:number | /UNLIMITED] [/REMARK:"text"] [/GRANT [user[:perm][ /GRANT user[:perm]]]] [/REMOVE user] \serversharename /DELETENOTE: If a sharename or path contains spaces, it should be enclosed in quotes: \server"with space"="c:with space"
