Behaviors (especially those with decades long precedence) shouldn't change without very good reason, and they certaintly shouldn't change non-deliberately. I wonder if POSIX has anything to say about quota behavior. Since I posted the message, I checked a SLES10 box using ext3 with acls and user_xattr. It's behaves as expected in the traditional manner. Being over your data block quota doesn't impact the ability to create zero byte files. Empty files are not usually accidents. ___ Dax Kelson Guru Labs -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
