step 1: use a newish kernel. the modern kernels support much more than
4G quotas. search /usr/src/linux/Documentation/Changes for "quota" to see
if your kernel is new enough. the 2.2.5-22 kernel that ships with RH6.0
is good enough, btw.
step 2: upgrade your quota utils. version 1.7x quota utils (that came
with RH6) are broken. find an RPM of quota version 2 someplace
(rpmfind.net is a good place). i'm using a 2.0pre4 tarball i found
someplace.
step 3: enjoy your big quotas!
