	Early warnings aren't available: there is
	nothing in the SMB protocol that allows this.

	However, the error returns are those sent
	by NT on disk-spece exhaustion, so the
	behavior of the clients **should** be 
	an error report.  What application
	and client are you using that doesn't 
	tell you about the failure?
