Re: Incredible Disappearing Quotas

2002-11-22 Thread jesse jacobs

 Hi all,

 All the quotas on our system (Red Hat 7.3, quota package quota-3.03-1,
 kernel kernel-2.4.18-5, ext3fs filesystems) keep getting hosed.  I keep
 updating them, but user quotas either disappear, revert to the previous
 quotas, etc.  About once per week I've been setting the quotas properly,
 but as each day goes on, even without modifying *any* quotas, one by one
 they start disappearing.

 I've already tried deleting the aquota.group file (we're using group
 quotas, specifically) and starting over, but the problem is persistent.

 I'm a step away from keeping user quota information in a database and
 then running a script to set the quotas every day, but that seems a bit
 on the kludgy side.  Does anyone have a better solution or any info?

 TIA,

 Fred

I've been having the same problem too.  But on 8.0.
the group quotas are reverting back to 0 for blocks and inodes
this is very annoying as I must ensure that the users keep under quota for
their mail and another group for their webpage

Here's what I recommend...

1. Upgrade your kernel. Yours is out of date.

If that fails to make a difference...

2. Get the latest quota src package from rawhide and recompile it for your 7.3 
system.

If that also fails...

3. Go to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/ and file a complete and thorough bug 
report. Give them lots of details so they can help resolve your problem.

Just upgrade and ensure that all scripts refer to -g, as user is default.

Well ... if there is any consolation ... you are not alone :-)
