this is cut from my quota FAQ:

   now you can add individual quota limits, if you want to add the same
   quotas to the many people, then make a template and replicate the template.
   If they change for each user, then edit seperately.

# edquota tinguely

 (an editor is kicked up and says something like:

Quotas for user tinguely:
/usr: blocks in use: 11876, limits (soft = 0, hard = 0)
        inodes in use: 891, limits (soft = 0, hard = 0)

 a limit of 0 means "unlimited" change these to the approapriate number of
 blocks. A soft limit generates a warning, and can be exceed for period
 of time (7 days?), after which time a soft limit is treated like a hard
 limit. A hard limit denies new writes.

 to replicate a template (for this example let us assume "tinguely is the
 template):

# edquota -p tinguely user1 user2 user3 ... userN
