Yes, harder but not impossible. Remember the folder "My files" (?, in 
german "Eigene Dateien") in the profiles. I have no NT-Sever so I do 
not know how they solve the problem. But I think it's just NT (and 
w2K?) being to stupied to say: "Logout stopped. Free Diskspace and 
try again". Or at least not corrupting the ntuser.dat.

May be you can set a big difference between soft and hard quota and 
wirte a cronjob that tells people "Free diskspace or loos your 
settings". The soft quota is shown on the PC :-).

As far as I know: For different quotas you need different disk 
partitions --> More effort to manage and Problem remains.
