Are you sure it's a "problem" and not that you have files with unknown owners? I noticed the same thing at one point on my system, so I used find to find those particular files. It turned out to be from some ports I hadn't "make cleaned". As you probably know, the ownerships are retained when extracting a tarball. Try, find /home -user "4143380214", to see what the files are. -Chris > -----Original Message----- > From: Khetan Gajjar [SMTP:khetan@chain.freebsd.os.org.za] > Sent: Sunday, August 08, 1999 8:13 PM > To: questions@freebsd.org > Subject: Unknown UID quota problems on a softupdate-enabled slice > > 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.
