Agreed.<br />
<br />
Making a share is pretty easy. If you do so, be sure to first make a group named something like &quot;Help Desk&quot;, if you haven't yet. Then, add the users into that group. Then add the group into the NTFS and Share permissions.<br />
<br />
How easy do you need it to be?<br />
<br />
Do you need to do this on lots of systems? If so, you can use NET SHARE and ICACLS to help speed things.

Ok, I'd like to do that on multiple servers.<br />
So that would be server01,server02,server03<wbr /><br />
Create share server01 c:\windows\ccm\logs sharename logs, permissions domain\helpdesk readonly<br />
<br />
Howto do this in powershell?
</div>


<div>
While I'm all for using powershell whenever possible, this would really be done quickest by just going and sharing out the folders on the 3 servers. <br />
<br />
If this is going to be a recurring task then scripting it would be ideal.

<div>
Who said there were only 3 servers? That was just an example. There are many more.

Hi,<br />
<br />
On a Windows 2012 R2 server, what would be safest way to grant helpdesk users readonly on a log folder, f.e. \\server\c$\windows\ccm\lo<wbr />gs ?<br />
Creating a share for only that reason? Wouldn't there be an easier way?<br />
