RE: {bb} Disk statistics - wrong

["Szabady, Paul (NIH/NIEHS) [C]" <szabady@niehs.nih.gov>]

John, 

I forgot to mention this is a problem on Windows 2003 servers.

As a follow-up/FYI, I downloaded a trial version of the BB pro client
and tested it on one of the servers and it works as expected.  
 
Here are the stats for a W2k3 server with 16TB+ volume as the F drive.

<servername> - disk
green Mon Jan 07 12:37:06 EST 2008 [<FQDN>]

Filesystem   1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Mounted
C             17679500 10723828  6955672    61%    /FIXED/C ()
F             17580926968 11805421352 5775505616    67%    /FIXED/F
(Data)


What are the chances of a new (better than free) windows client?

As far as I remember BB does no calculations itself on disk sizes and
percentages, but just uses the various fields of the 'df' command. What
output do you get from the 'df' command?
