Is there a way to place a limit on the size of each user's home folder? I'm having disk space issues.
Thanks!
 
Hey wvgirl64,

You can also try this if the users use IE for Internet. Go to Documents and Settings do a search on T.IE5. This will bring up History.IE5 folder for each user, this folder will reach 300+ megs the allowable size of Internet Cache. If you delete these folders IE will automatically recreate them. * Don't delete the Default users folder. This is used to re-create the folders for the other users. This have saved me upto a 2 gig on each server. I do this monthly

I had thought about the quote feature, but was not sure that would work since I as administrator created the home folders when I set up the accounts. How does Windows know then that the home folders are on a per-user basis?
