Using Client's resources
by chetan88 - 4/9/12 9:46 AM
How can server use the resources that are available to client.
e.g. if client system has 80 G.B. HD and he requires only 20 G.B. of it, then how can I use rest of the space in Domain Controller?

Too vague.

Besides the speed issue of moving 20GB over the network means your client would fire you for an app that is slow.

You didn't got me.
I want to say that in my momain, client system has hdd of 80 G.B. out of which the data he use is only of 20G.B. including all apps.
now on his machine there is still around 60G.B. available which is of no use.
I want to use this space on Machine with server installed in it. In such a way that noone other than me can know it's being used by me.
One method I know is by sharing that drive.But, in that he will be able to see that drive on his machine.I want even he cannot see that drive on his machine.
No one can see that drive other than machine with machine with server operating system.
That's never done. Why?

The client's machine usually is theirs and not ours to take advantage of.
Since it would be dishonest to use their machine and space without them knowing I will not assist in JACKING their PC.
Maybe others will, but no moderator here will help.

That's OK.
But, that Hard Disk is getting waste as there is no use of that much space. That's why I thought if it can be done.
Can I install priniters on server OS like Canon mf4412?
At this time it's installed in client's machine and it's inaccessible from server as its drivr are not getting installed.
No you can not.

I'm unsure if this will upset you but if you could, you would. I'm at a little loss why you feel it's OK to use a person's HDD space without telling them and trying to hide it.
That's not yours.
I've seen folk extend this sort of thinking to other folk's cars. The results are not fun.

You didn't get my real concern

I don't want the client machine(which is being used by my employees) storage to be misused. I know for that I have an option of disk quota, but then, I'm wasting my valueable Hard Disk Space. Being the one in-charge of the server and also the owner of the business, I should then be able to use that space. That's what I'm trying to ask. It's nothing about interfering with one's person. I just don't want my office's resources to be misued, and at the sametime I don't want them to go waste either. Further when it's my office it's upto me how much amount of resources to be used by whom and how, and also to not to let my own resources go waste(wastage of anything being bad for buisiness!)
The question as presented.

Was going to derail this one.
Also if it was yours, why the need to hide this? It's yours and no need to hide it.
By leading off with this you put your question in a bad light just like all those bad folk that are hijacking computers around the world. I will not help anyone jack a PC.
If you want to change your position, start a new post. But there is no reason to hide this. As the owner you share the folder/drive and use it. Done. Supported. No issues.
