Hi folks,

	I'm trying to use a custom dfree command to have my Samba share reports 
accurate disk usage, here my dfree script (I pretty much copied it right 
off the smb.conf man page)

#!/bin/sh
/bin/df -k $1 | tail -1 | awk '{print $2" "$4}'


	In smb.conf, I included this line:

	dfree command = /usr/local/admin/samba-2.2.4/bin/dfree

	This dfree command is root owned, root writeable only script.

	Whenever I double-click on the Samba share on Windows clients, I get 
these error messages in samba log:

[2002/06/14 17:26:50, 0] smbd/dfree.c:disk_free(118)
   disk_free: sys_popen() failed for command 
/usr/local/admin/samba-2.2.4/bin/dfree .. Error was : No child processes
[2002/06/14 17:26:50, 0] smbd/dfree.c:disk_free(118)
   disk_free: sys_popen() failed for command 
/usr/local/admin/samba-2.2.4/bin/dfree .. Error was : No child processes

	Am I missing something?  Could someone help out!

	System info: Solaris 7, Samba 2.2.4, Windows 2K clients.


Thanks,
Desmond
