Hi.

I have a recurring problem with user quotas on one of my slices
(/home).

Quotacheck on bootup kept taking extremely long, so I ran it manually,
and it says
2=[root@blah] ~# quotaoff /home; quotacheck -v /home; quotaon /home
*** Checking user quotas for /dev/rwd1s1e (/home)
unknown uid: 4143380214
arbuser  fixed: inodes 0 -> 9   blocks 0 -> 18

I let it complete, and it seemed happy. I then dropped to single
user mode, fsck'ed the drive, and went back into multi-user mode.
I re-ran quotacheck on the drive, and it returned the same thing,
but for a different user. On every reboot, or more accurately, mount and
unmount of the slice (after turning off quota's, of course), it
generates the same error on the quotacheck. 

For now, I just CTRL-C the quotacheck and enable quotas.

Any idea how to a) get rid of the unknown UID 4143380214 and b) fix
the problem permanently ?

The slice in question does have soft-updates installed.
I'm running 4.0-CURRENT built today, but I don't think that's the cause
of my problem :)

But, for completeness sake :

/dev/wd1s1e on /home (local, soft-updates, writes: sync 9 async 1249)
