I use a server at rackspace Ubuntu 11.10 which unfortunately doesn't contain the quota module as all virtual kernels as I have found searching for this ubuntu version!!!
Now, I want to enable quotas following all steps (see: www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-lpic1-v3-104-4/index.html or www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-setup-disk-quotas-in-ubuntu.html or http://www.debianadmin.com/implement-and
having issues setting quota on an external drive,
i made a point to mount /newmount and in the drive i added the aquota.user and aquota.group
edit the /etc/fsbtab and it look like this and reboot
/dev/sdb/ /newmount ext4 defaults,usrquota,grpquota 0 0
did a reboot but when i try the quotacheck -mavug it gives this error:
quotacheck: Cannot guess format from filename on /dev/sdb.
Hi,
I'm practicing new things with Linux/Unix and I need someone to point me at the right direction.
Lets say I create a user named user1. After creating it, how would I enable quotas for it.
Hello!
I am in a weird problem of not able to set quota on an ext4 file system. I have setup a logical volume on which this ext4 filesystem resides. It's going to be used by an application for dumping data. But we want to setup quota so that it does not consume all the free space of the lv. The application will generate an error log if the quota limit is crossed.
Title should have been "Quota & user backup question" :o
I've got a question about specifics on quotas.
Here's the situation: I've a user that uses about 13GB of diskspace and has a quota of 25GB.
Hi,
Just got my first dedicated server running, I'm facing this problem
Output of /scripts/fixquotas
Code:
root@whm [/dev]# /scripts/fixquotas
Installing Default Quota Databases......Done
Quota Mode: Linux
journaled quota support: kernel supports, user space tools supports (available)
Warning : Your system does not have a separate filesystem for backups.
I have a samba server exporting homes. Usermanagement/authentication is done via ldap (openldap to be specific). Now I want those users to have a filesystem quota. As far as i understand the best way would be to implement them in the underlying filesystem, with the standard linux quota tools ("quota").
I have fully functional mail server which uses maildrop as a delivery agent. Now i need to implement quota for each mailbox. I've found some articles which describes quota configuration with patch to postfix - but i found some posts that patched postfix quota functionality works only when virtual delivery agent is used.
The AFS volume quota is almost exceeded for one of our computer users.
