dovecot - Jul 2009 - rquota RPC with netapp filer

Hello list,

with dovecot 1.2 on AIX rquota RPC calls fail with

  quota-fs: remote ext rquota call failed: RPC:
      1832-012 Program/version mismatch

when using a netapp filer.

This is what netapp says:

Bug ID		97288
Title		Support requested for rquota version 2
Bug Severity	5 - Suggestion
Bug Status	Closed
Product		Data ONTAP
Bug Type	NFS
Description	Linux has implemented its own extensions to the rquota
		protocol as a version 2 of that protocol.  ONTAP only
		supports v1 as that is the only version defined by
		Sun, the owner of that RPC program number.
Workaround	-
Fixed-In 	This bug is not scheduled to be fixed, you may opt to
Version		open a technical support case if you would like to
		contact Network Appliance regarding the status of this
		bug. A complete list of releases where this bug is
		fixed is available here.


So this should be no AIX specific problem.

Using the attached rquota.x fixes the problem. In addition you have to
disable group quota checking by adding "user" to your
"quota"
definition. Otherwise you'll see:

   quota-fs: rquota not compiled with group support


Regards, Ralf

Are you sure that's needed?

Isn't this enough to get rid of the first problem too?

Also this should remove the need for that too:
