We had a file server (windows 2003) which ran into an issue where enough sessions were being created that the system process would consume 100% of a CPU.
After mucking about with Lanman and SessionManager settings PSS had us modify NTFSDisableLastAccessUpdate as well NtfsDisable8dot3NameCreation. I can't tell you NTFSDisableLastAccessUpdate was THE fix, but it certainly was part of it. It's now been 4mo without a reoccurrence of our original problem, and without breaking anything else. -----Original Message----- From: Micheal Espinola Jr [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2008 11:22 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: R: NTFSDisableLastAccessUpdate regkey On Wed, Sep 24, 2008 at 7:07 AM, Michael B.
