Your best bet is to use the ADSI ActiveX interface to do this. I use wrappers written in C to access low-level security-related APIs, which I would then call from VFP. You could take the example VB or VC++ code and create an in-process COM server to expose the interface to VFP via COM and follow the examples in the KB to implement the functionality you'd want.

The process of managing shares from Win9x and WinNT/2K is different, so you'd want to explore both sets of functions.
