Just a quick comment. When I was running 2.2.2-R, after a particular bad system crash, quota.user and quota.group on my quota'ed drive become corruped (one of them actualy grew to about 200MB), and also reported abnormal/incorrect values. What size are your quota.user and quota.group files? I assume you are running quotacheck -a from /etc/rc? Bernie > No, the quota system is indisputably broken.
