We get this (see below) error only logging in as a everyone rights or non admin user on NT, win 2000 or XP only workstation, using a Novell 4.11 server with Novell client 4.83. I checked the rights of the folder and users have rwecm rights and admin has ownership, I have the same scenario at another location running Novell 4.2 and they don?t' receive any such messages, all running xp client 4.83, I tried disk quota but that didn?t work

When you look at the volume, logged in with full rights, from Windows Explorer, what is the total space available?
I don't remember the exact specifics, but there is a limitation in the space available calculation that it returns incorrect results if the space available is above a certain amount. I believe that amount is 4GB. If you search the list, you should be able to find more specific information.

Christopher,
Here is another post on the website from Steve Smith that explains in more detail what I was referring to. BTW, the limit is 2.2GB, not 4GB.

I believe in Netware 4.x you can constrain the perceived available space under Netware's user level account disk quota options.
There is a drive free space function available on my website.
Drivespace() is the native routine in AREV for such purposes.
It will return an invalid number if the free disk space exceeds 2.1Gb

Arev is self-healing! I freed up some disk space on the server and the available disk space error went away. I went from a 9gb drive with about 1.1 free space to more the 2.0 GB free and the error no longer appears, go figure! I guess Some of the greatest culinary recepies are produce by accident.
