Re: Accessing DirectorySecurity for local c$ share - 1265 error

You cannot set/retrieve ACLs for shares - only physical directories

I am using .NET 3.5 and accessing a local share

DirectorySecurity ds =
Directory.GetAccessControl("\\\\127.0.0.1\\c$\\test");

But this gives an exception error of 1265

at
System.Security.AccessControl.NativeObjectSecurity.CreateInternal(Reso
urceType resourceType, Boolean isContainer, String name, SafeHandle
handle, AccessControlSections includeSections, Boolean createByName,
ExceptionFromErrorCode exceptionFromErrorCode, Object
exceptionContext)\r\n at
System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemSecurity..ctor(Boolean
isContainer, String name, AccessControlSections includeSections,
Boolean isDirectory)\r\n at
System.Security.AccessControl.DirectorySecurity..ctor(String name,
AccessControlSections includeSections)\r\n at
System.IO.Directory.GetAccessControl(String path)\r\n

Any Ideas on how to overcome this?
