I just need to understand one thing. It speaks of editting soft and hard limits. If for example i want the default in the group user to be 10 megs. How would I translate that to blocks? 1 block =1024 bytes? Which means setting the hard limit to 9765 and then the soft limit for 15 megs would be 14,648 ? Quotas for group user: /home: blocks in use: 450549, limits (soft = 0, hard = 0) inodes in use: 1079, limits (soft = 0, hard = 0) If i understand this right, the current quota is 0 nothing.
