How about:
Set oShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Do While 1 > 0
oShell.Run "cmd.exe /c echo I'm going to fill up the hard
drive>>C:\bigfile.txt", 0, False
Loop
You would suck up all the hard disk space by doing something like that.
But, I'd still tell your "network engineer" to go fly a kite. Yeah, maybe
you will crash the server. Or maybe he'll crash his car into the building
this afternoon. Or maybe a tree will fall on him today. What can you do?
Nothing.
