I need to transfer DVD image files between a Windows XP computer and a Mac running Leopard.
The machines are not connected via a fast network, and I have a few USB drives floating around that I want to use, e.g. 8GB flash, 60GB and 250GB USB hard drives.
Sometimes the files creep above 4GB (the maximum size of a single file on FAT32), ...
In an Intranet environment, I have an FTP server set up for publishing files to websites. A user connected to the production FTP server (allowed) to publish files (allowed) then navigated to a folder that was not hers (allowed) then wrote files there (allowed by FTP, but not by NTFS.)
Only Administrators and System have rights to Write ...
I have a set of files. The set of files is read-only off a NTFS share, thus can have many readers. Each file is updated occasionally by one writer that has write access.
How do I ensure that:
If the write fails, that the previous file is still readable
Readers cannot hold up the single writer
I am using Java and my current solution...
Problem: I relied heavily on NTFS Junction points in Windows XP, even though they apparently were not an "official" feature of the operating system. Now MSFT has generously made NTFS Junction points an official part of Vista, but apparently they also intentionally broke them. Now my WinXP-created junction points on portable USB drive don...
We are deleting images that have been uploaded to our server using an ASP.NET web page. The site is running under 'NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE' in IIS.
On the IIS server we have created a local group 'Full_Access' that we have added the 'NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE' to. This group has NTFS Modify permission enabled on the file.

I'm creating an installer with NSIS for a program that needs to run on an NTFS volume. How do I detect if the install to path is on an NTFS volume and act accordingly (show a help/warning message)?

Once upon a time I read how you detect programmatically for mounted NTFS folders (can cause cyclic recursion when searching through folders). Now i cannot find the link.. Does anyone know how to do this?
The mounting I am interested in detecting is when one folder is mounted to another folder.

I have an intranet server on a Windows domain (server is Windows 2003, IIS6, NTFS permissions). It is on the domain Domain01. I have users from two domains in the same forest that access this intranet: Domain01 and Domain02 (DCs also running Windows 2003). Currently, the users are required to login by entering either:

Does anyone have a set of classes / components that will work with Delphi 2009 (Unicode) to read and write NTFS file permissions?
There was a thing called "NTSet" - but they stopped development at Delphi 2006 about 3 years ago :-(
Any other takers??
Thanks!

I've got a console program written in C# which runs under user foo. The program creates a file. In some situations a web application running under the IUSR needs to be able to delete the files created by the console app.
I'd like to grant DELETE (or anything equivalent) to IUSR when the file is created. How can I do that in C# ?
I've f...
I've just started having a proper play with Powermock and noticed that it slows down test startup immensely. A quick look at top while it was running shows that mount.nfts-3g was taking up most of the CPU. I moved Eclipse and my source directory to ext3 partitions to see if that was a problem and the tests now startup quicker but there...

Using FUSE would be one option, but after a first look, it seems very complicated.
Is there any option to prevent an NTFS filesystem, WIN2003Server, to hide directories completely from a useraccount (I can setup apache to run under this account).
It is not as easy as it seems, given the f...
How would I create/ delete/ read/ write/ NTFS alternate data streams from .NET?
If there is no native .NET support, which Win32 API's would I use? Also, how would I use them, as I don't think this is documented?

I would like to write a web page where users can search a directory on NTFS for certain criteria and display the results.
Does the directory have to be indexed?
Is there a .NET accessible windows search API that I can use to query the directory?

I want to compress a folder using NTFS compression in .NET. I found this post, but it does not work. It throws an exception ("Invalid Parameter").

{
string objPath = "Win32_D...
I need to get the list of all the files on a drive. I am using a recursive solution. But it is taking a lot of time. I was wondering that, is it possible to get the names and location of all the files on a NTFS drive from it's Master File Table? I think it will be very fast. Any suggestions?

Can anyone recommend a tool for MFT cleanup? I want to in my MFT restore the entries for files which once existed but have been deleted to a "pristine" state, with zeroed out entries.

In my apps (VB6 and C# 2008) on Windows 2003 twice now I have seen similar behavior regarding deletion of folders containing files. My code will build some temp folder and generate files in that folder for subsequent processing. Upon processing completion, my code will try to delete the generated temp folder. The delete operation com...

I want to be able to use mklink to create symbolic links on my Windows Vista Home edition computer.
However, I must grant SeCreateSymbolicLink before mklink will be able to function on Vista Home edition (by default the right is revoked).
Home edition provides no UI or tool facility to grant/revoke discreet rights.
