Clients see 0KB free on share

I have some users that are connected via smb to a share on the server. They have reported that occassionally it will show that 0KB is free, even though there are ~2TB free on that share. This is only happening to clients that mount the share with SMB. If I tell them to eject the share and re mount it as AFP, it reports the correct free space. If they eject that and go back to SMB it still reports 0KB. A restart on the local computer they are having trouble with fixes this. What could be the problem? All clients are running 10.4.8, server is 10.4.8

This is a client-side problem.
Older versions of the Mac OS, and most Windows versions can't understand volumes larger than 2TB. At the time they were developed 2TB seemed like an unimaginable amount of space and so programmers made assumptions that included artificial limits like this.
Consequently when the OS does come across such a volume, the actual size overflows the apps' expectation and you often end up with a negative value, which is even scarier than '0KB available'.
In either case, the problem is purely cosmetic.

  • Is there a way to hide apps from the app store? I don't want my kids to see those "free" apps that nag you to spend real money and download their other apps! I can hide them from "purchased apps", but they still show up when browsing for new apps!

    Not other than parental oversight. On the computer you can implement Parental Controls on a separate user account that they would use. You can then block certain websites. But you cannot do that on the iPad.
    You could change your iTunes account such that they cannot access it in order to buy or download apps.

  • Decrease client imeout against DFS-R shares

    We are configuring DFS-R to act as a high availability service for our file shares. I realize there are some caveats but I can live with those. What I am looking to do though is reduce the timeout value for clients from the default two minutes to seconds
    - even if this increases network load.
    IE. A client connects to a dfs share that is replicated and works in the share through Explorer. The server the client is connected to, drops off line or is shutdown for maintenance, the users connected to that server then experience the hour glass for up to
    two minutes until the referral ttl expires and is processed and the client connects to the second server that also hosts the dfs share. Its this hour glass interruption and long failover time our users are complaining about because if they try and click another
    folder they get the Windows is Not Responding. If they are trying to access a mapped drive then obviously they can click and wait but we are looking for minimal interruption. Yes, clustering is an option but we are starting to span campuses and dfs-r reduces
    the spof at the share level in a cluster.
    Any pointers would be great!

  • Guest users cannot see or connect to shares on Snow Leopard 10.6.1

    I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard from 10.5. After upgrading, users connecting as "guest" to my computer cannot see any of the shares (and therefore cannot connect to them).
    If I connect as my administrator user from another computer, I can see all the shares, as well as all the volumes.
    I have verified that the Guest Account is enabled (Allow guests to log in to this computer) in the Accounts preference pane, and of course File Sharing is turned on in the Sharing pane, and all the shares are listed with the correct permissions.
    This is a very strange and perplexing problem. Any help would be most appreciated!

    If they are connecting as a registered user they can see all the shares....but as a guest they cannot...I'm trying to find what might causes that problem....I really cannot think any logical reason... Everything in my options seems to be ok... So after the 10.6.2 update your problem solved ? I think that you were very lucky man...If you find any answer to that problem please let me know...
    Anyway,Thank you for your reply!

    How to see the free characteristics in the workbook!!
    Thanks

    hi pooja,
    just open your query in Bex Analyzer,
    there u will find three buttons above the data table display.
    then when u will click on Filter tab, u will get all the free characteristics and variables used in your query.
    then u can go to workbook, switch to design mode and make them visible,
    may be at the time of creation of workbook, it(filter) would have been removed and saved as workbook.
    hope this will help u
    thanks

  • HT4059 See no free books on iBooks except old fiction. Why is this so. A matter of all kinds to be free. Please advise on how to use correctly.

    See no free iBooks except old fiction. Why is this so. Please advise on how to find and use correctly.

    What country are you in ? (This page shows what content types are available where.) Some countries currently only have free books, to be able to sell recent/current books in a particular country the publisher's need to grant Apple a license to do so. Have you got access to other ebook apps/stores in your country ?

    Can't find what you are talking about, could you post a link.
    I see the following.
    Quote "Select any of the applications below to download a free trial.  Or sign up for your free trial of Creative Cloud to get free access to all of these applications, mobile apps, web storage, and more."
    Its all referring to trials.

  • I can only see the free eBooks.... what am I doing wrong?

    After reading numerous post here, after spending hours with Google, after interchanging mails with Apple support and after talking to two different agents..... I still can't download anything but free eBooks. No doubt it is something simple that I am doing wrong but after several weeks at this I am getting to the point where I want to throw the iPad out of the window!
    I have iBooks installed on my iPad
    I have an account on iTunes
    I have downloaded many other applications for the iPad
    I have bought music via iTunes
    ...... but as I have said when I click on the "Store" button on the iPad I only see the free books.
    If anyone can HELP it would be most appreciated.
    Thanks.

    OK, well I spoke to the shop again, a different person this time. Again they said that the necessary agreements were in place in Spain and that the ibook store should work.
    It still doesn't.
    So I update my account, used a UK credit card and a UK address and it works fine. So still not sure what the problem is, or why Apple couldn't sort it out for me, but I am now up and running via the back door.

  • User can't see any free/busy - on one PC only.

    Hello,
    I have one single user who cannot see the free/buy info of any other user from his normal desktop PC using Outlook 2010.
    If he uses Outlook Web App on the PC, it works perfectly.
    And if he uses Outlook 2010 on another PC (on a different network sub-net), it works perfectly.
    What network dependencies does the free/busy info have please?
    Exchange 2010 with Outlook 2010.
    Thanks,
    - Alan.

    Hi,
    As we know Availability service is responsible to fetch the free/busy details in outlook 2010 where Exchange 2010 is installed.
    I suggest to enable Logging of Availability Service, then post the result of log file so that we could dig this issue further:-
    How to Enable Logging of Availability Service:-
    Start Outlook.
    On the
    File tab, click Options.
    In the
    Outlook Options dialog box, click Advanced.
    In the
    Other section, click to select the Enable troubleshooting logging (requires restarting Outlook) check box, and then click
    OK.
    Restart Outlook
    When Outlook uses the Availability Service to retrieve free/busy information [Try to fetch free/busy for other users to simulate the issue],
    log files are generated in the following folders: 
    %temp%\OLKAS
    The file name of the log files uses the following format:
    yyyymmdd-hhmmssss-AS.log
    For example, a log file that is generated on March 30, 2010 at 2:14:20.0029 P.M. will be named:
    20100330-1411200029-AS.log
    Post result of this log.

  • Public folder migration difference what Outlook client see

    I have successfully migrated  public fodders from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013. Problem that I`m seeing is  what Outlook client see.
    I have two types of clients :
    Windows XP + Outlook 2007
    Windows 7 + Outlook 2013
    Outlook 2013 client see  Public fodders as expected.
    Outlook 2007 client, sees  one level lower including ipm_subtree.
    Is these normal ?

    Hi,
    Please try to use OWA to check whether you can expand the subtree of Public Folder.
    If OWA works, how about using Outlook 2007 with Online Mode?
    Thanks
