I seem to have a slight problem, i've emerged quota, setup the files quota.user and quota.group in /home/Users.
also i've setup the init scripts and fstab
Fstab:
Code: | # NOTE: If your BOOT partition is ReiserFS, add the notail option to opts.
/dev/hda1 /boot ext3 noauto,noatime 1 2
/dev/hda3 / reiserfs noatime 0 1
/dev/hda2 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hdb1 /home/Cevo reiserfs noatime 0 1
/dev/hdb2 /home/Users ext2 noatime,usrquota 0 0
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 |
permissions:
Code: | drwx--xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jun 12 00:05 donkey2
drwx--xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jun 12 00:05 hellzone

-rw------- 1 root root 0 Jun 12 02:52 quota.group
-rw------- 1 root root 0 Jun 12 02:52 quota.user |
errors:
Code: | * Starting Quota...
Checking quotas. This make take some time.
Cannot get exact used space... Results might be inaccurate.
quotacheck: WARNING - Quotafile /home/Users/quota.user was probably truncated. Can't save quota settings...
quotacheck: Scanning /dev/hdb2 [/home/Users] - |
at this point the scanning doesn't complete and has caused my system to hang.
any ideas? as i really need a quota based system setup to stop users going over a specified limit. please could you help with the current problem? or suggest an alternative?
