Hi,

I have a network share to which I write my Vista backups. The backups
perform a full backup of the requested file and then backs up files as they
change. Eventually the backups eat up all of the space on the share. Is there
a way to limit the share space that Vista backup occupy?

XP allowd you to schedule full and differential backups so as a user I had
full control of backups. Vista doesn't seem to give me the granularity that
XP provided...

Thanks,
Larry
