Hi,

I have a question on quota here. I did a 'quota -u netaniche' and got the
following display below,

Disk quotas for user netaniche (uid 1023):
Filesystem  blocks   quota   limit   grace   files   quota   limit   grace
           /usr    2442       0   55296             451       0       0

Additonally, I did a 'du /home/netaniche' and got the following display
below on the last line,

4661    /home/netaniche

Doesn't the display in KB from 'du' sounds a little misleading? If 'quota'
says that the user has already used 2442 blocks (1221KB if each block is
512K), why will 'du' says that the size of the directory /home/netaniche is
4661KB?

Thank you.

Regards,
Seng Yip
