I am calling CreateFile on a remote file (\\IP\C$\DirPath\FIlename). I have
all the permissions needed. See code snippet below. What is this message,
"Not enough quota is available to process this command" and why does it
happen?

m_hFile = CreateFile(SomeFileName,
GENERIC_READ,FILE_SHARE_READ,NULL,OPEN_EXISTING, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL,
NULL);

if (INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE == m_hFile) {

DWORD Err = GetLastError();

// GetLastError returns 1816

// Not enough quota is available to process this command

return false;

}

Thanks for any insight.

The target system uses disk quotas, and the user you are running
under has exceeded their quota, so a new file cannot be crated.
Try deleting some files until you fall under the quota limit for that
user.
