I have an interesting problem. My hard drive keeps filling up on the server and I don't know what the cause is. When I right click on winnt and go to properties it shows 6.19 GB of data but if I go into the folder (with all hidden files shown) it only shows 2.52 GB of data. I am thinking of modifying the attributes on the folder to see if the problem is related to system files but I am starting to think that it may be more sinister than that.

Thank you,

Leto the just

Do you have users saving files to this server? Have you searched the drive for files larger than a specified filesize?

Life's more painless for the brainless.

"Index Your Files" will index network files from Network Neighborhood drives. It might be an interesting experiment to index all the files in those drives to see what is actually there?

Yes, but they don't save to the boot partition and I have searched for files larger than 100mb and 50mb and I don't see any glaring culprits.

Thank you,
