      Which of course has to be done carefully, as I don't want to break any network shares or files.

                  But seriously anyone know of any tools that can shorten a network path name? And not just in a terminal, but the physical path name.

                  E:\dsfbgsdfg\2314312363456\sdfgwesd\2011\452345\2011a\32452345 wsdfgbvw\23452345\

                  to

                  E:\dsfbg\2314. . . . . .

                          Pretty sure that's just gibberish.

                            I saw that, but it only lists the file paths that are over a set limit, it does nothing to rename them.

                                Have you considered a naming convention of some sort for your file servers and locking it down?

                                  @NerdyDad Yeah . . . . only been at the new job a month.

                                  This is just a trouble issue as I'm trying to archive things from past years and the user base here has been allowed to do whatever they want.

                                    That makes sense. Sounds like its time to reign it in.

                                          @momurda Seriously, I helped a kid in Texas via TeamViewer to be able to mount a drive inside of ESXi.

                                          He had no clue, but had hundreds of VM's he was "in charge of".

                                          I could've screwed him over royally if I wasn't such a nice guy.
