Limit number of subfolders users can create


we're looking way limit number of subfolders user can create in given share.  have large number of users regularly create massive amounts of subfolders within shares.

there doesn't appear easy way limit - we're open third party applications or thoughts on customized group policy if needed.

 here overview of latest quota management microsoft http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles_tutorials/configuring-volume-folder-quotas.html

while quotas @ folder level rather @ volume level, believe still focussed on amount of disk blocks used rather number of folders

i dont know of off shelf solution, should relatively straight forward build 1 using wdk samples. major issue getting solution signed microsoft loaded on 64 bit servers.
