Every year about this time I have to archive off data to media such as DVD or CD and every year I run into problems because some of my users create files that have names as long as a sentence or they are so far buried in a folder structure that file copies fail, I cannot burn the files to CD, etc. And every year after losing more of my hair I inform the users on the restrictions of the NTFS file system and the importance on keeping names short and sweet. Either they don't listen or don't care because I keep running into this problem. Is there anyway to enforce a limit (Windows Server 2000 and 2003) on the length of file names?
