I think I am having problems with my /etc/fstab. I modified this line in my fstab file. /dev/ad0s1g /usr ufs rw,userquota, 1 2 My users are in /usr/home/. I am asuming that when I type quotacheck -a I will build the database. I then typed quota test and I get some results. 12 files. I add a file and nothing happened. I then erased all the quota.user and added a file to my test user, recompiled the kernel, reboot and rebuilt the database and checked for the number of files. 12 again? Am I typing the command in wrong to set the quota limit or messing up fstab? I typed many different things. Thanks for any help. ----- Original Message ----- From: "ScaryG" To: "terry" Cc: Sent: Thursday, August 15, 2002 6:21 AM Subject: Re: QUOTA > On Thu, 15 Aug 2002 01:48:16 -0600 > "terry" wrote: > > > I am having a problem setting up my quota's.
