How To maximize folder store?

[Sander Weijers]

Hai all!

I'm using Windows 2000 Server (SP4 UK) including Active Directory.

I've created a folder Data with some subfolders on a data disk (RAID5).

Below the Data folder I've got some folders for public use, and some folders
for private use. Last one I'm trying to limit. I don't want users to be able
to have > 150 Mb in these folders. But I do want them to be able to place
large files in the public folders.

So:
D:\Data\Users\user1; max mb for user1 = 150
D:\Data\Users\user2; max mb for user2 = 150
D:\Data\Users\sales; max mb for all users = unlimited

I've tried to use Disk Quotas, but I can only set them up for the whole
disk. I've also checked several policies, but nothing to find (only roaming
profile size)

Can someone tell me how and where to set this up?


Thanks!

Disk quotas are based on a users file ownership within a volume. You would need to
create a separate volume to do what you want. --- Steve
