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) FreeBSD blah 4.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 4.0-CURRENT #0: Sun Aug 8 11:09:59 SAST 1999 root@blah:/usr/src/sys/compile/BLAH i386 --- Khetan Gajjar (!kg1779) * khetan@os.org.za http://khetan.os.org.za/ * Talk/Finger khetan@khetan.os.org.za FreeBSD enthusiast * http://www2.za.freebsd.org/ Stupidest quote heard : Who is this BSD, and why should we free him ?
