you can set up a template account (or use a known account that will not
go away soon). use edquota to have the quota values that you wish, and
if you add accounts via adduser program add the following:

*** adduser.orig	Tue May 22 08:42:25 2001
--- adduser	Tue May 22 08:44:06 2001
***************
*** 714,719 ****
--- 714,720 ----
  	    &new_users_sendmessage;
  	    &adduser_log("$name:*:$u_id:$g_id($group_login):$fullname");
  	    &home_create($userhome, $name, $group_login);
+ 	    system("edquota -p newuser $name");
  	} else {
  	    $new_users_ok = 0;
  	}


newuser is the template account referred above.
