<BR><FONT SIZE=2>One way i figured out how to do this is to setup CIFS/SMB and use</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>check_disk_smb. Share the file system out with samba which is easy to setup.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Just share out as read only and limit who can access the shares. Then use</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>check_disk_smb to verify the disk usage.</FONT>
