All of these users are in the same group, but when the group file has all of the users in the group line, quota will not recognize the group. If I remove some of the users, making the line in the group file shorter, quota will see the group. My question is, does quota need the users to be in the group file to impose the quota, or is thier being in the group (as stated in the passwd file) good enough? If not, how can I get quota to see the group with all the usernames in the group file? -- Chip Marshall http://www.jlc.net/~chip/ InterNIC handle - CLM21 Key fingerprint = BA B1 8E 14 60 C6 10 32 18 24 C6 F1 D5 CC 80 52
