Vista - Number of files per library

Number of files per library

I need to synch more than 10,000 files per library. They are in 32 folders,
which in turn are all under one folder.
Creating 4 windows usernames and using foldershare under four accounts is
not convenient.
Any suggestions how to synch these folders and files?
Thanks,
Mehran

RE: Number of files per library

Maybe you can do this...

You now have a "folder" with 32 "folders" in it...

Maybe you could make 4 sub-folders in the first folder
and then move 8 of your 32 folders into each of the 4-sub folders

Then you only need to make 4 shares, and that is do-able, isnt it?

Once solution would be, if you don't access files in a folder very often, is
to ZIP the folder up. Suddenly that folder becomes a single file.

Hopefully this won't be an issue if/when the FolderShare team allows a
higher limit or a commercial account with a higher limit.
