This isn't actually a problem, I think, as Win 95 clients do the same
thing. It'll read 1.9 gb free until the free space actually gets below
1.9 gig, then it'll report the proper free space. You'll notice it
probably reports the volume as empty, too.

You have no problem shovelling a 4 gig file into that 1.9 gig shoe until
the _real_ disk space is les than 4 gig.

Annoying as hell; I don't know if the Appleshare client fixes it or it's
an NT thang, to be fixed when 5.0 comes out.
