??why would you do that?? you will certainly have many failed backups if
you do this. Also, the quota would have no useful function except to break
backups.
You might be ok if you just setup SOFT quotas and put the hard limits
extremely high. Then the backuppc server would send an email each time
someone backed up data over their quota but once they hit that point they
would get a notification every single time until an old full backup expired
that had some large files that have been deleted.
You would be much better off putting a quota on the remote computer for the
user in question. You can do this in windowsXP+ easily.
managing quotas in linux is well beyond the scope of this mailing list and
google can help you out but I think that this is not a functional solution
on backuppc. backuppc should just do backups, not tell people how much they
can backup.
