In the last episode (Sep 20), cyu0635@home.com said: > I implement diskquota on a user - Paul has 10M under his directory > /home/paul > the repquota said that Paul's space is full. > But I run the command > > du -m ./ under his directory /home/paul is only 5M Quotas apply to entire filesystems. If home is its own mountpoint, run (as root) "find /home -user paul" to print all files owned by paul. If home is part a larger filesystem, replace /home with the root of that filesystem (i.e. / or /usr). Another possibiliy is that paul has created a 5mb file, opened it, then deleted it. The space will not free up until all open file handles are closed. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
