>>A client of mine has the files of my app in an NT 4.0 server that has a very large number of files (over 50000). The server also has a lot of memory (256 MB).

>>Does anybody know what is the maximum number of files that can exist in an NT disk or server, and if it can be modified?

And in folders as well. The problem may be only because of a large number of files in one folder.
