Doug,

enable quotas in your kernel and recompile by adding "options QUOTA" in
your kernel config.
in /etc/fstab, add "userquota" or "groupquota" or "userquota,groupquota" to
your mount options like so:

/dev/wd0s1g             /home           ufs     rw,userquota              2
      2 

I usually only use "userquota".  Add the quota database file by running
"touch /home/quota.user" or 
"touch /home/quota.group".  Reboot your system after the new kernel and
such.  Also, enable quotas in your /etc/rc.conf.
