Automatic Folder Permissions using ASP

[Aynz]

Hi All,

I would like to automatically create a folder on my website when a user joins it so they have thier own url (for example www.mydomain.com/joe_bloggs) Unfortunately my webhosts (who use Plesk 7.5.5) have made it so that when a folder is created the standard user only has read access and I need them to have write access too. I would like the process to be automated is this possible? Is there a script out there that will allow this to happen.

Another option would be to automatically create a subdomain however I think this poses the same problem with the automatic folder only having read access.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the link, there is a lot of useful stuff there.

Unfortunately I could not see any script commands for folder permissions, the command lines for creating a subdomain will be useful (http://download1.swsoft.com/Plesk/Plesk7.5/Doc/plesk-7.5r-sdk-html/docs/cu/win/ch06.html) noe if I could just get a command for setting folder permissions I would be laughing. Any idea if this is possible?

If you want to script you can use native Windwos 2003 commands

1.Xcacls.exe
1.cacls.exe

First command available in Windows Support Tools (from Windwos CD)
