You can also combine steps 2-4 into one step and just run "quotacheck -u
-v /home". It does the same thing.

Subject: Re: disk quotas on redhat 7.2



Edit the file /etc/fstab:

Add userquota after defaults, using lower case.


1.)  /dev/hda7   /home  ext2  defaults, userquota     1 2

Then create two files for the partions

2.) touch   /home/quota.user
3.) touch  /home/quota.group
4.) chmod 600 /home/quota.user
5.) chmod 600 /home/quota.group

You must reboot the system.

6.) edquota  -u  sam ( username )

Soft limit = Maximum amount of disk disk usage a quota user can have on
the system.

Hard limit =  A user cannot go beyond. If this limit is reached, the
user will not be able to use any additional space.
