Bug Description
Binary package hint: gvfs
I have several shares on a Samba file server that I use from Windows and Ubuntu clients. The Windows clients all report the available free space correctly. The Ubuntu clients (versions 8.10 and 9.04) always report 0 bytes used and 0 bytes free when I view the connected folder's properties. See attachment.
This effectively makes writing to Samba shares impossible using Ubuntu. When saving files, some applications just warn about low disk space but others such as Photoshop 7 in wine just refuse to save files there.
The shares tried are both anonymous as well as authenticated.
