quota to a folder

hey!

i got the following prob:
i want to set quotas to specific folders.
AFAIK this is only possible to specific users or groups.

in my case all these folders are property of the user apache.

is there a possibility to tell the system that a folder must not contain more
than e.g. 10 MB of data?

thanks for help

well, you could always use dd to create a 10 meg image and then mount it
will be quite hard if you want to expand the size as you would have to copy the content to a new image
