Hello WebMost,
Thanks for your answer.
I know how to determine maximum diskspace for a user,
but I do not understand how the figures in Disk Usage tab are
calculated. As you can read from my original problem description,
users have disk usage assigned to them which we cannot find on the
disk.
So, what is the utility calculating these numbers?
Thanks in advange for any answers,
Bert Catsburg
