The kernel team have discussed this before, and aren't prepared to do the work to maintain this, since two other filesystems provide quota support already, without additional intrusive patches. Maybe you can request it for 9.2 (along with a 2.6 kernel?). - -- |--Another happy Mandrake Club member--| Buchan MilneMechanical Engineer, Network Manager Cellphone * Work+27 82 472 2231 * +27 21 8828820x121 Stellenbosch Automotive Engineering http://www.cae.co.za GPG Key http://ranger.dnsalias.com/bgmilne.asc 1024D/60D204A7 2919 E232 5610 A038 87B1 72D6 AC92 BA50 60D2 04A7 -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQE+daj1rJK6UGDSBKcRAuNoAKC0fs5sf8Zw5xp5mLx803r5a7hyGACaAyWt ECWz/x/d7O1dfRkk+8eYJb0= =ApdY -END PGP SIGNATURE-

User can check quota over nfs on ext3. you only need to nsflock services. Quota on reiserfs is possible with a patch on kernel, suse include it. But is it a good to provide this ?

AFAIK, no (see man mount, no quota option listed for reiser). Use a real FS, like XFS ;-). IMHO, ReiserFS is usually useful for filesystems that don't need quota support, things like mail queues, proxy caches etc. For the places you want quotas (places users can write), you probably want good large-file performance and may want acl support, so ext3, or ever better, XFS are more suited here. quotas on XFS are also just so much easier to setup than ext3, and update almost immediately, plus normal users can check their quota, (apparently not possible on ext3, maybe also not on reiser). With XFS on our fileserver, I can even check the quota on the NFS mounts as a normal user.
