But i still confused too much about this subject, I hope this will be my first guide from you. I'm on FreeBSD 4.2-Release. For Disk Quotas, 1) I First Edit my kernel /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC to options QUOTA or should I cp GENERIC MYKERNEL and then edit MYKERNEL insted of GENERIC ? im confused here. :< 2) Second I edit /etc/rc.conf to enable_quotas=``YES'' 3) Edit /etc/fstab to enable disk quotas /dev/da1s2g /home ufs rw,groupquota 1 2 what is the 1 2 after groupquota ? should i write the groups name for example /dev/da1s2g /home ufs rw,groupquota test assuming that test is a group. 4) Now i should recompile the kernel, this is the problem :< what i should do now? can please kindly someone guide me throe this steps how to compile ? === For system UPdate, im On FreeBSD 4.2-release as i mentiond. If i want to upgrade to 4.2-stable what i do? Should i install /ports/net/cvsup-bin ? and then? Sorry if my questions is too long or silly for you. but the freebsd.org handbook, mention lot of things and im confuse about it, i would like to take the info from here.
