The IADsFileShare interface is exposed from the File object. You can use this interface to get and set various properties of a file share. Note that this interface is defined only on those File objects that represent a file share and not directories or files.
Only members of the Administrators or Account Operators local group or those with Communication, Print, or Server Operator group membership can do file share management. This includes creating and deleting file shares, viewing and changing file share properties and changing permissions on file shares. Permissions on a file share indicate the users who can use that file share and what actions they can take.
