Permissions

They removed the share off of the drive where my snapshot replication step
(SS 2000 SP3a) writes to. That's all well and good because someone had
accidently shared out the whole drive. But now my snapshot step is failing
with "process could not create \\server\h\repl\unc".
Of course, we added a share to the repl folder and it failed with the same
error msg. Then we added in the share to the whole drive again and it still
failed.
So I am wondering if some permissions got clobbered or changed. So here are
my q's:
1. What permissions does snapshot replication run under? Does it just run
under the main sql server service account?
2. Can we just share out the subfolder, i.e. either the repl or the unc
subfolder?
3. Is there anything else we should be troubleshooting?
Any help would be much appreciated...Nevermind - I got it to work.
