Hello! I have a group of 5 users that I want to set up quotas for - their home directories are: /export/data1/user1 /export/data1/user2 /export/data1/user3 /export/data1/user4 /export/data1/user5 And they will be given free reign to fill up those directories however they choose. At the same time, there will be a fair number of automated processes on the system that place files and directories and logs and other files into their home directories. So, as time goes by, not only will the users themselves fill up their dirs, but other processes on the system will fill up their dirs. These files and dirs that are created by these other processes will be owned by various usernames - bind, www, root - and have different groups set to them as well. My question is, will the extra files and dirs that get placed in their home dir by all these automated processes count towards their quota ? If not, is there a way to set up quotas so that _they do_ ? Basically I just want the quota to calculate how much is in their home dir and enforce based on that... comments are be appreciated
