I found out what is causing the error messages: I run am-utils', amd and that creates an entry in /etc/mtab which is parsed by quota to see what filesystems to check for quota. The amd entry imposes a problem for quota and it throws this error. Does anybody know where I would report this? I couldn't find anything about the quota maintainers. Maybe the redhat-devel list? Or buzilla? nick ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Re: Quota Error - RH70
I have also tried that as well to no avail. It almost seems to be the program is wrong or something as the response is "Invalid Argument". I only start it as "quotaon -u /home". This is what I am told to do. It almost seems as if the program is passing itself an argument (strange?) or I am missing an argument (Not listed?). Any programmers out there wish to comment on this? Any other ideas on what might be wrong with quotas?

Re: Quota Error - RH70
Make sure that your fstab has a line like this that refers to /dev/sda8: /dev/sda8 /ext2defaults,usrquota 1 2 The "usrquota" is the important part there. If you haven't included the usrquota parameter, you can't actually enforce user quotas on the file system in question.

Quota Error - RH70
Hey there guys, I'm trying to set up a server with quotas and I am running into a problem. I have gone through dejanews and pulled down the directions for running quotas and got all my files and options in place. The problem is that when I reboot the machine or try to turn quotas on I receive the message: quotaon: using /home/quota.user on /dev/sda8: Invalid Argument I then returned to dejanews to find out what might be up. Seems that a lot of people are having the same problem, but I don't see any responses. Does anyone have any ideas on what to do or what might be wrong? I was running into trouble under Kernel 2.4.2-ac7, but I have since reloaded the machine with a completely stock RH70 and the same problem still exists. I have also gone as far as trying to get a new version of quota and that doesn't seem to do it either. Whatever the case, if anyone has any tips or pointers, that would be great.
