Summary: Wrong disk size reported for redirected disks

Initial Comment:
Hi,

When using rdesktops disk redirection I have
experienced the following problem. 

When copying large (larger than the free space on /)
files from the terminalserver to my usb drive the
terminal server claims that there is not enough free
diskspace. If I mount it as a network drive
(\\tsclient\usb\sda1) on the terminal server I rapports
the correct amount free diskspace.

General information about my setup:
When I plug a usb drive into the machine. Hotplug
scripts generate symlinks in /mnt/usb/ to automountable
drives in /scsi/ . /mnt/usb is the folder rdesktop
shares. ( So /dev/sda1 is mounted on /scsi/sda1 with a
symlink to /mnt/usb/sda1 ). I have also tried with
mount --bind instead of symlinks.

It looks like rdesktop does'nt calculate the available
space correctly when symlinks are involved.

Sincerly,
Oftedalus

I believe this is a duplicate of bug 1467742.  The problem 
is in the disk_set_information routine in disk.c.  The free 
space check is being done using a statfs call, passing the 
path in the "-r disk" command line option.  Oftedalus is 
using "/mnt/usb" as the disk redirection path on the 
command line.  If statfs is passed this path, it will 
return the size of the root filesystem, not the USB drive 
mounted under /scsi and symlinked under /mnt/usb.  I think 
the correct path to pass the statfs call in 
disk_set_information is not the command-line path 
(g_rdpdr_device[pfinfo->device_id].local_path), but rather 
the path to the file being written (pfinfo->path).

And if you specify the disk redirection with the non-symlink
name of the USB drive, it all works well?
