Need to re-create WSUS shares--

I had a drive in our server start failing so i replaced it.  It isn't a mission critical server and isn't running a raid, just independent SATA drives.  WSUS lives on this server and works fine.

I began copy over 700GB of data.  Before I got to copy the WSUS folder, it had already downloaded the 16GB again.

I know that before the drive died, WSUS created 2 shares when it installed.  Can someone tell me what the shares are called and what permissions, if any, need to be set?

im trying to avoid a uninstall/reinstall.

Thanks

Just checked 2 separate WSUS 3.0 servers and there are no WSUS shares on either. It is all done through IIS now. If you expand out the website containing WSUS in IIS management, you'll see a content sub folder which should have all the files/directories that your patches are downloaded to.
