ok, stupid question time.... how does one use quotas and samba, i haven't seen anything mentioned in any man page re quote support.
You don't do anything -- in fact, quotas are always enforced (with or without with-quota) because the FS keeps track. The quota support, however, provides windows clients with the quota info so it isn't a surprise when a user has run out of quota and the machine gives the proper status info. ---- _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ |Y#| | | |\/| | \ |\ | | | Ryan Novosielski - Jr. UNIX Systems Admin |$&| |__| | | |__/ | \| _| | novosirj@umdnj.edu - 973/972.0922 (2-0922) \__/ Univ. of Med. and Dent. | IST/ACS - NJMS Medical Science Bldg - C630 On Tue, 17 Jun 2003, d.kavadas wrote:> ok, stupid question time.... > how does one use quotas and samba, i haven't seen anything mentioned in any man page re quote support. > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the > instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba >

But if you set up multiple shares in the same partition/logical volume, one set of quota rules will be binding for all of them. Quotas are not from samba. They are further below that level. They are provided by the fs.>quota's are only available for partitions correct ?Once again, quotas do not come from samba. ____________________________________________________________ Get advanced SPAM filtering on Webmail or POP Mail ...
