I will have to edit /etc/fstab . I will have to add usrquota,grpquota
Good research.
Now, my question is to which partition should I have to add
usrquota,grpquota.
Is it to /var partion should I have to add quota as All incoming mail
will be stored as /var/spool/mail/username
According to your list of filesystems below, yes, /var definitely needs
quota turned on.
or
Is it to /home partion should I have to add quota as All users are
system users ( i.e- /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow and /etc/group
Only if you intend to lump both mailbox quota and home directory quota
together. If you need to enable separate quotas for these...you need
another solution. If you do not need quotas for anything but mail, just
turn on quotas for /var.
to create account I use traditional useradd command as follows.
useradd username
my partion table of the hard disk is as follows. /var and /home partion
are marked in BOLD letters.
pls see below
[root@mailgw ~]# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda2 39G 1.6G 35G 5% /
/dev/sda1 2.9G 53M 2.7G 2% /boot
none 251M 0 251M 0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda5 39G 201M 37G 1% /home
/dev/sda7 6.8G 2.4G 4.1G 38% /opt
/dev/sda6 6.8G 48M 6.4G 1% /tmp
/dev/sda8 52G 1.4G 48G 3% /var
