I connect to a share on a windows server and I have a quota of unknown size. All the tools I have seen are reporting the disk size/disk free space, not the quota size for myself.

The only way I can figure out my quotas is to keep writing junk until I reach the quota. There must be a better way than this?

My PC is windows XP and the servers are mainly 2003server.

If you map the share as a network drive it will show you the limit and the amount used.

  • Thats not WinXP. In winxp it just shows the size of the disks on the server, not of your quota space. – myforwik Mar 04 '10 at 03:17
  • I realize the screenshot isn't. Except here my xp machine shows the quota. – Unfundednut Mar 04 '10 at 04:25
  • Mr static > Are you connecting to a 2008 Server? 2003 server does quota by the whole drive (ie on the whole of the D: for example, no matter how many folders/shares you have access to), rather than by folder. – Tubs Jul 27 '12 at 11:37
