Disk Quota Problem

Hi I am trying to use disk quota to manage the amount of
space users may use on a network drive. On one user I
cannot get the amount of space they are using to show up.
It simply says 0 bytes next to his name. I have set it up
so that he can use 30MB with a warning of 26MB. He
currently has around 60 MB on the network drive but can
continue to add more and it doesn't register in Disk
Quota. What is causing this? I've checked on his
computer and he is the owner of all his files and has
permissions. ALthough on the network drive the owner is
administrator!?! He isn't even an option for ownership on
the network drive.

Any Help is Appreciated.

Adam, if he is a member of the local Administrators group on the server,
ownership will belong to the local Administrators group, not to his
domain user.
