Hm, I cannot. I made up the example to simplyfy it.
The closest I can offer to "df -h" output is what I wrote in the OP:
Directory Mountpoint Free space
/Shares / 20MiB
/Shares/CAD /Shares/CAD 40GiB
So, in /Shares/CAD, there are 40 gibibytes available. In /, which
hosts the directory /Shares, there are only 20 mebibytes available.
When I'm in \\server\Shares\CAD with the Windows explorer, I see
that there are 20MiB available; it "should" have shown that there
are 40GiB.
Hmm, well, how about this output:

In the second "dir" command, you see that the same free space is shown
as in the first dir command. 142.651.392 bytes is close to 137M shown
in the df output.
