Um, /var would usually be in /etc/fstab already. If you've configured your system so that everything is on a single partition, then you're out of luck, because quotas work on filesystems, not directory hierarchies. Any quota you apply to your users on '/' now is going to apply to those users' disk usage on the whole filesystem, not just in /var. Consider creating a separate /var filesystem (which is the default in new FreeBSD installations). Ciao, Sheldon.
