    I've heard rumblings that quotas are only honoured on the root
filesystem, and not on other mounted filesystems.  I hope this is
outdated information.  :)  I need to export seven 4-gig filesystems to
NFS clients, all with quotas enabled for about 10000 users in total.
Any known problems with that (especially concerning the large fs size,
NFS export and number of users)?
