DESCRIPTION
This tool is part of the samba(7) suite.
The sharesec program manipulates share permissions on SMB
file shares.
OPTIONS
The following options are available to the sharesec program.
The format of ACLs is described in the section ACL FORMAT
-a|--add=ACL
Add the ACEs specified to the ACL list.
-D|--delete
Delete the entire security descriptor.
-F|--force
Force storing the ACL.
-m|--modify=ACL
Modify existing ACEs.
-M|--machine-sid
Initialize the machine SID.
-r|--remove=ACL
Remove ACEs.
-R|--replace=ACLS
Overwrite an existing share permission ACL.
-h|--help
Print a summary of command line options.
-d|--debuglevel=level
level is an integer from 0 to 10. The default value if
this parameter is not specified is 0.
The higher this value, the more detail will be logged to
the log files about the activities of the server. At
level 0, only critical errors and serious warnings will

be logged. Level 1 is a reasonable level for day-to-day
running - it generates a small amount of information
about operations carried out.
Levels above 1 will generate considerable amounts of log
data, and should only be used when investigating a
problem. Levels above 3 are designed for use only by
developers and generate HUGE amounts of log data, most
of which is extremely cryptic.
Note that specifying this parameter here will override
the blue]log level] parameter in the smb.conf file.
-V|--version
Prints the program version number.
-s|--configfile <configuration file>
The file specified contains the configuration details
required by the server. The information in this file
includes server-specific information such as what
printcap file to use, as well as descriptions of all the
services that the server is to provide. See smb.conf for
more information. The default configuration file name is
determined at compile time.
-l|--log-basename=logdirectory
Base directory name for log/debug files. The extension
".progname" will be appended (e.g. log.smbclient,
log.smbd, etc...). The log file is never removed by the
client.
ACL FORMAT
The format of an ACL is one or more ACL entries separated by
either commas or newlines. An ACL entry is one of the
following:
REVISION:<revision number>
OWNER:<sid or name>
GROUP:<sid or name>
ACL:<sid or name>:<type>/<flags>/<mask>
The revision of the ACL specifies the internal Windows NT
ACL revision for the security descriptor. If not specified
it defaults to 1. Using values other than 1 may cause
strange behaviour.
The owner and group specify the owner and group SIDs for the
object. If a SID in the format S-1-x-y-z is specified this
is used, otherwise the name specified is resolved using the
server on which the file or directory resides.

User Commands SHARESEC(1)
ACLs specify permissions granted to the SID. This SID can be
specified in S-1-x-y-z format or as a name in which case it
is resolved against the server on which the file or
directory resides. The type, flags and mask values determine
the type of access granted to the SID.
The type can be either ALLOWED or DENIED to allow/deny
access to the SID. The flags values are generally zero for
share ACLs.
The mask is a value which expresses the access right granted
to the SID. It can be given as a decimal or hexadecimal
value, or by using one of the following text strings which
map to the NT file permissions of the same name.
o R - Allow read access
o W - Allow write access
o X - Execute permission on the object
o D - Delete the object
o P - Change permissions
o O - Take ownership
The following combined permissions can be specified:
o READ - Equivalent to 'RX' permissions
o CHANGE - Equivalent to 'RXWD' permissions
o FULL - Equivalent to 'RWXDPO' permissions
EXIT STATUS
The sharesec program sets the exit status depending on the
success or otherwise of the operations performed. The exit
status may be one of the following values.
If the operation succeeded, sharesec returns and exit status
of 0. If sharesec couldn't connect to the specified server,
or there was an error getting or setting the ACLs, an exit
status of 1 is returned. If there was an error parsing any
command line arguments, an exit status of 2 is returned.
EXAMPLES

created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed by the
Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the
Linux kernel is developed.
