I think I will try Agus's patch, it sounds easy.
Although putting in a flag in vpasswd file/table against a user seems more
sensible in the long run, it sounds rather complicated as a lot more
related code might have to be changed. I guess Ken can decide on this for
a new release, along with an "--enable-quotawarn" option ( ;-) slave
drivers we are).
Ken, did you look at Agus's code? Any comments?
