You should be using the MMC for doing FSRM (File Server Resource management);
Ideally thsi is what you do: With a faint idea about your environment, but since you said it is school - I would think in those lines. You select entire volume (ie. D:\) and enable soft quota (Monitoring ONLY) - create standard alerts at 85% and 100% watermarks - point it to an email address for email alert. Than, you create autoquota and set to hard limit of let's say 5 GB each. That ways 1) Existing folder and 2) ANY NEW folder(s)created will automatically inherit 5 GB quota. Thereafter you selectively assigned bigger quota(s) to individual folders - depending upon the folder usage or user request. dirquota is the commandline tool which can do this trick fairly easily. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc730873.aspx HTH ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
