SYMPTOMS

If a NetWare network administrator has limited the amount of disk space available to a user in a particular folder on a NetWare server, the free disk space available reported by the Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks does not reflect this limitation.

The value reported as free disk space is the total amount of space physically available on the server's volume, instead of the amount available to the user.

CAUSE

The Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks makes a single request for directory information with the permanent directory handle that returns the total free disk space.
