One of the things I noticed, when configuring mine via webmin, was that
there are soft limits and hard limits.
Soft limits give the user a grace period. Hard limits seem to stop them
cold.

Hi,
I've got a RH5.2 box running very stable - so I do not want to
tamper with it too much.
I would like to get quotas started for users to limit the amount of

How do I go about it? The man pages are not very helpful. Is there
somewhere a Howto?

1) make sure quota RPM is installed
2) edit /etc/fstab and change the partition where you want quotas, eg:
/dev/sdb5
i also like to know how to do it on the command line. no
