What you can do is:

1) shutdown wildcat

2) delete data\files.tot

3) Run WCREPAIR

4) Restart Wildcat

This will update the files.tot which sometimes can go incorrect in keeping
totals usually because some people will manually delete files, etc.

I can't repeat this in the current release. Did not test older versions.

Most likely is.  I'll check to see if there are some issues here.

What protocols do you have in your access profiles?  Are they turn on for
all?  Partial?
