I have found on a File Server, that "Previous Versions" /VSS is being used.

Strangely though, some items have previous versions available, but others do not.

Any idea why? Shouldn't VSS be getting copies of all the files on the volume?

i dont think files created off network have it

Hmm... The files in question are on the network... on the file server with VSS activated.
That's why this is puzzling to me.

what are the clients?

xp home and xp pro sp1 dont like VSS

XP Pro sp2

Is the VSS service started on the clients?

Yeah, sure. I can see some of the Previous Versions, but not others. And this is stuff on the same volume

Disk cleanup?
