dfree command does not use actual directory

[Hans Tediger]

I verified, "dir" works correct for widelinks in combination with a dfree command.
Works also with Double Commander.

I use xplorer2, I will file a bug there.

Thx Uri for pointing me that it is client related.

In general the server is actually doing what you want - I just tested it with a Windows client, typing "dir" at the share's root and at subdirs - the dfree script gets the path relative to the share's root.

Not exactly sure how the wide links which you say you have in place affect this.

I'd verify, using a packet trace,  that the client is actually asking for file system info on the subdir (as happens when doing "dir") and not on the share's root. What client are you using?

Thanks,
Uri.
