ftp.cica.indiana.edu [129.79.20.84] has approximately ~300Mb of disk
space now devoted to Windows programs and utilities. This ~300Mb
resides on a half-gigabyte disk. So we've got approximately ~160Mb
left before we have to do some shuffling...
In terms of total storage space here on-line to the department, the
ftp partition is on one drive of several in a disk farm that comprises
over 17 gigabytes (16,616,318Kb) of shared file space. But that's
probably more than you wanted to know. ;-)
