# Share Report

### What is a Share Report?

* In this report you can scan the network for all servers, add server manually or select Computer Accounts from Active Directory.
* Once a server is selected, you can see all shares of this server. Optionally you can create a **NTFS Permissions Report** right off a share.

**Adding Servers:** For adding servers you have several options:

* You can scan your local network to find servers.

* Use `Active Directory Browser for Computer Accounts` and select a server to add it.
* **Option 1:** You can scan the network by clicking on `Scan Network` icon.
