I think FileSharePermission maybe the answer for me. I try the following code and got some compiling error.
<Directory Id="NETConfig" Name="Config"> <Component Id="NETConfig" Guid="AC36EFA1-011C-400c-BA50-2825CF330B4D"> <util:FileShare Id="NETConfig" Description="NET Config" Name="NETConfig"> <util:FileSharePermission User='Service Accounts-DTF' GenericRead="yes" Read="yes" GenericExecute="yes"/> </util:FileShare> </Component> </Directory> Error 1 The util:FileSharePermission/@User attribute's value, 'Service Accounts-DTF', is not a legal identifier. Identifiers may contain ASCII characters A-Z, a-z, digits, underscores (_), or periods (.). Every identifier must begin with either a letter or an underscore. How to solve this problem?

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How to change permission for existing Folder and/or file? After one day of research. It looks to me that CustomAction is only way I know to achieve it. Is this the right way to go?
