Nothing right now - Samba 1.9.18 only implements
the parts of the protocol that report disk sizes <= 4Gb
(2^32 -1).

Samba-2 does this correctly - on a platform with large
file support you can happily create & use 20GB files (I
have one to test with right now :-) and also it will
report filesystem sizes >4Gb correctly.

If you can't wait - try the latest alpha's or via
anonymous CVS at:
