Randy,

A user's files could be somewhere else than in that user's home directory.  If 
that user is the admin and has been loading a lot of files to the site's 
website - that counts again him too, since those files are also owned by that 
user.  So you have to go around that virtual site, find all the files owned by 
that user and add them all up to get his actual total.  It should come close to 
that quota number.

One way to fix that is the new feature in the BX GUI where you can set the 
ownership of the /web directory's files.  Change the ownership to "nobody" or 
"apache" - and it may solve that user's over-quota issue.  Of course - that 
could cause other problems with the website itself (especially if using a CMS), 
so be sure you know what you're doing before changing those ownerships.

Chuck
