We are putting into production a new samba server(s) with a combined storage pool of several TB's of space.
One of the problems we encountered was that OS X ( 10.4.5 ) reported free space incorrectly on very large values ( 650gb in our case ). It would report the free space as doubled for no apparent reason ( probably because it presumes values over a specific amount are 2k blocks rather than 1k ). We were able to overcome the problem by stating a block size for the share larger than 1024. In our case we used "block size = 8192" and the problems went away(tm). I wanted to post this information so that others with this problem, or similar problems would have a place to start looking.
