Re: Syncing problem with SBS server 2003 (dell poweredge 400sc)

After i had disabled the disk quota, afew hours later it had been enabled
again. How does that happen, is there something in the OS that demands that
disk quotas be set, or some reset that happens?

now i've left the disk quotas enabled but checked the 'do not limit disk
uage', i've also updated the user quota's to 'do not limit disk usage' as
well; but i wonder if the issue will reappear again.

Hi mb box,

Check the quotas on the server drive in question.

Start | Explore > right click the drive the share is on and select
Properties.

Click the Quota tab - are Quota's enabled (the tick box). If so, click on
Quota Entries button. You should be able to figure things out from here.

Server syncing was working fine last week. This morning my boss came in
and
gets a sync error 'the disk is full', he is unable to save any shared
mapped
network drive files until I shut down the server and he is working
offline.
The sync screen doesn't indicate which of the mapped offline drives can't
be
sync'd up. I was able to access and sync with the server w/o any problems
although the share with the data that he actively creates and modifies
that
is not the same as the shares that I regularly modify/access and have
offline.

There is 60+ gig of free space on the server.

My idea is not at all elegant -
1. create a new share on the server
2. map a network drive on his laptop to this new client data share
3. xcopy the mapped offline drive with all his client data to the newly
created share on the server
3. disconnect all his previously mapped drives (leaving the new client
data
share)
4. delete all offline files on his laptop
5. map network drives to the shared folders
6. offline all the files on the network drives to his laptop.

Is there a better way? Does anyone have any idea of what could cause this
type of sync error?
