All quota setup is done at the server. That's what I've done. Quotas are working in the server. I put this line on the server's /etc/fstab. "/dev/hdd5 /mnt/p1 ext3 defaults,usrquota,grpquota 1 2" The mount command does have a "usrquota" mount option. See man page. I used that option; see previous email. So when you mount at the client, you tell it you want to use quotas with the "usrquota" option. Also, /etc/exports says that "usrquota" is not an export option. Even though I mount with the usrquota option, the client does not see a filesystem with quotas. client> edquota jdoe No filesystems with quota detected. client> quotacheck -cugm /mnt/p1 quotacheck: Cannot find filesystem to check or filesystem not mounted with quota option. I'd really love to solve this one. According to me eSearch, just about everyone who ever tried to solve this problem, went out without an answer. This fedora list has to have something... ;-) thanks a bunch for the reply. ~af -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
