Re: Limiting Users Home Directory Size
Quotas are a bit awkward if your user community is constantly changing, but for a fixed environment it should do the trick.

Re: Limiting Users Home Directory Size
Using disk quotas solve your problem.
edquota [ -p proro-user ] username ...
edquota -t
Filesystem on which you want to set user's quota must contain in it's root disrectory a file named "quota".

Re: Limiting Users Home Directory Size
setting up the quota on every user is the only way to restrict their home dir's sizes

Re: Limiting Users Home Directory Size
as quotacheck is based on the owner of the files, and not really on the total size of the user's homedir, you should also limit the use of "chown" (see setprivgrp) ;-)
