Re: enabling quota

Hello Pure,

If you post the way how you configure the quota it is easier to follow you.
Normally you can set quotas on harddisk's. There is no need for a domain.
Please describe more in detail what you have done.

Best regards

Re: enabling quota

Yes, it works regardless of domain or workgroup.
One reason it doesn't work is if users are members of local administrators
group. By default, quotas do not apply to local admins.

local users who are part of local admin group and saved files bigger than the
warning limit no warning message was displayed :)
