Does anyone know how to keep the users from seeing the total shared drive size and available disk space when they map a drive. I have a new server with 500 free gigs and the users see this when they map a drive. I do to keep them from seeing this if at all possible.

Shared drive disk usage

I've never tested this, but if I remember well (correct me if I'm wrong people...)
If you set up the Quota's on that disk, the user should only see the amount of room left to his/her in the assigned quota.
If you set them up to use 2 Gigs, then the mapped drive should only list 2 Gigs as maximum capacity. This applies for Windows 2000/XP machines only. I'm not sure about Windows NT.
