I have a 2TB drive on my machine mounted as /home/Louis/Downloads and that works fine:



NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda 8:0 0 1,8T 0 disk
└─sda1 8:1 0 1,8T 0 part /home/Louis/Downloads
mmcblk0 179:0 0 100G 0 disk
├─mmcblk0p1 179:1 0 100M 0 part /boot
└─mmcblk0p2 179:2 0 100G 0 part /


I have a SMB config sharing /home/Louis/ over the network and I can access it from Windows just fine, the problem is that the reported size in Windows is just 100GB (The size of my /home partition) and not 2,1 TB of the whole /home folder.



Here's the smb.conf:



[Home]
comment = Home Folder
read only = no
locking = no
path = "/home/Louis"
guest ok = no
browsable = yes
valid users = pine
create mode = 0644
directory mode = 0755
create mask = 0644
force create mask = 0644
directory mask = 0755
force group = pine
force user = pine
public = no
writeable = yes


If I directly mount /home/Louis/Downloads in Windows, I get access to the whole 2TB, but I can't get to the rest of my /home/Louis stuff without using 2 letters in Windows, and I'd like to use just 1.
