I do not know, and only have quotas enabled on / , because if I try to
enable them on ANY other directory, it won't work. I suspect this has
something to do with the fact / is the only filesystem, no? I didnt create
a /usr /var, etc. This system has a small HD(545MB), and is only a light
shell/WWW/DNS server.

(is also a light mail/www/realaudio client. :) )
