Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: hackers-owner@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk I've read several comments about disk quotas in 2.0.5R, most of them saying that they're broken. Could somebody take a sec to tell me exactly what is broken and why? I'd love to try to fix it, but I'd like a little insight beforehand. Is anyone working on fixing disk quotas yet? I wouldn't want to duplicate efforts, so let me know now before I get started. A short history of when disk quotas were broken, why they got broken, and what might be needed to fix them would be very helpful. Thanks. Pete Kruckenberg pete@dsw.com
