Environment

Novell Client for Vista
Novell Client for Windows 7

OES 2 Server with DFS junction where the volume has LESS space than the target it points to. ie. 200 Meg NSS volume with junction that points to 100 GB Volume.

Situation

When trying to copy a file larger than the volume holding the junction, Windows 7 / Vista reports an 'insufficient disk space' message despite having sufficient space in the final path where the file is being copied.

Resolution

Fixed in Novell Client 2 SP1 for Windows (IR6) or later.
