APPLIES TO
This article was previously published under Q160897
SYMPTOMS
If a NetWare network administrator has limited the amount of disk space
available to a user in a particular folder on a NetWare server, the free
disk space available reported by the Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks
does not reflect this limitation.
The value reported as free disk space is the total amount of space
physically available on the server's volume, instead of the amount
available to the user.
CAUSE
The Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks makes a single request for
directory information with the permanent directory handle that returns
the total free disk space.
RESOLUTION
STATUS
