Listing Share Points

To list existing share points:

$ sharing -l

In the resulting list, there’s a section of properties similar to the following for each share point defined on the server (1 = yes, true, or enabled; 0 = false, no, or disabled).

name:	Share1
path:	/Volumes/100GB
afp:	{
	name:	Share1
	shared:	1
	guest access:		0
	inherit	perms:	0
}
ftp:	{
	name:	Share1
	shared:	1
	guest access:		1
}
smb:	{
	name:	Share1
	shared:	1
	guest access:		1
	inherit	perms:	0
	oplocks:		0
	strict locking:		0
	directory mask:		493
	create mask:		420 }

Creating a Share Point

To create a share point:

$ sharing -a path [-n customname] [-A afpname] [-F ftpname]

[-Ssmbname] [-sshareflags] [-gguestflags] [-iinheritflags] [-ccreationmask] [-ddirectorymask] [-ooplockflag]

[-tstrictlockingflag]

Parameter	Description
path	The full path to the folder you want to share.
customname	The name of the share point. If you don’t specify this custom name,
	it’s set to the name of the folder, the last name in path.
afpname	The share point name shown to and used by AFP clients. This name
	is separate from the share point name.
ftpname	The share point name shown to and used by FTP clients.
smbname	The share point name shown to and used by SMB/CIFS clients.
shareflags	A three-digit binary number indicating which protocols are used to
	share the folder. The digits represent, from left to right, AFP, FTP,
	and SMB/CIFS. 1=shared, 0=not shared.
