Hi... I have never used quota before. About 2 weeks ago I setup my machine to be a file server which anyone in my network can write to. Installed samba-2.2.1a_2 from ports. I configured samba so I have /home/samba (owned by user:samba and group:samba) as the directory in which people can write to. # cat /etc/fstab /dev/ad0s2b none swap sw 0 0 /dev/ad0s2a / ufs rw,userquota 1 1 /dev/acd0c /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 /dev/fd0 /floppy msdos rw,noauto,longnames 0 0 /dev/ad0s1 /win msdos rw,longnames 0 0 proc /proc procfs rw 0 0 Then as root I issued edquota samba. # quota -u samba Disk quotas for user samba (uid 1003): Filesystem usage quota limit grace files quota limit grace / 4601 300000030000001 3 0 0 But when I tried to fill /home/samba with junk (using another machine, a Windows 2000 machine, copying lots of MP3s thru Network Neighborhood), my machine didn't forbid 4 gigs size! Does quota suppose to work like this? I have OPTIONS QUOTA in my kernel and set enable_quotas="YES" in /etc/rc.conf. This is a -CURRENT system. # uname -a FreeBSD dante.naver.co.id 5.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT #0: Mon Oct 8 17:04:57 JAVT 2001 root@dante.naver.co.id:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/DANTE i386 tq /john Live Free OR Die To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
