You need to modify your fstab as follows, assuming you want quotas on
/home.
LABEL=/home /home ext2 defaults,
usrquota 1 2
Then run quotacheck –u –v /home. Then reboot. After the machine has
rebooted, you should be able to set quotas using setquota or edquota.
Check the man pages for the syntax. BTW: inode = files and blocks =
size(kb). Hope this helps.

Subject: Files Quota's on Redhat 7.2
I have to give it to MS Windows on Quota's, it much easyer to setup
faster. Quota's on LINUX SUCK'S. I have been trying to get it to work
for about one month now with NO LUCK. I setup my linux box with ext2
and followed the howto's and still with no luck. I am running redhat 7.2
, does redhat setup quota's different then any other's. It's always
telling me 1 or 2 is a bad mount point, what the heck does that mean. I
even tryed webmin, NO LUCK there either...
I have my fstab file
LABEL=/ / ext2
defaults 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext2 defaults 1
2
none /dev/pts devpts grid=5, mode-620 0 0
LABEL=/dos /dos ext2 defaults 1
2
LABEL=/home /home ext2 defaults 1 2
none /proc proc
defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults
0 0
/dev/sda5 swap swap defaults
0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto
noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0
