Is there anything in the resource kit that can get me a
DIR listing of folders and show the size of the folder. I
need to know how much space all folders contian in a
shared folder.

DIRUSE displays a list of disk usage for a directory tree(s). Version 1.20

DIRUSE [/S | /V] [/M | /K | /B] [/C] [/,] [/Q:# [/L] [/A] [/D] [/O]] [/*] DIRS

/S Specifies whether subdirectories are included in the output.
/V Output progress reports while scanning subdirectories. Ignored if /S is specified.
/M Displays disk usage in megabytes.
/K Displays disk usage in kilobytes.
/B Displays disk usage in bytes (default).
/C Use Compressed size instead of apparent size.
/, Use thousand separator when displaying sizes.
/L Output overflows to logfile .\DIRUSE.LOG.
/* Uses the top-level directories residing in the specified DIRS
/Q:# Mark directories that exceed the specified size (#) with a "!".
(If /M or /K is not specified, then bytes is assumed.)
/A Specifies that an alert is generated if specified sizes are exceeded.
(The Alerter service must be running.)
/D Displays only directories that exceed specified sizes.
/O Specifies that subdirectories are not checked for specified size
overflow.
DIRS Specifies a list of the paths to check.

Note: Parameters can be typed in any order. And the '-' symbol can be
used in place of the '/' symbol.

Also, if /Q is specified, then return code is ONE if any directories are found that
exceed the specified sizes. Otherwise the return code is ZERO.

Example: diruse /s /m /q:1.5 /l /* c:\users
 
And just where does one obtain this DIRUSE program? It ain't part of my
Windows 2000 Pro installation.

Here's a dirty little secret...

compact /s:[fully qualified path]

does the same thing and it's native
