How do I apply disk quota's

I am looking into applying disk quota's on the /home filesystem to limit space for users. I have read through the man pages but cant seem to figure out how to do this.

Can anyone give me some guidelines on how to do this please.

Kind Regards

Debbie

Re: How do I apply disk quota's

Hi Debbie,

1.) touch /quotas (file)
2.) edquota (Proto-User)
3.) edquota -p
4.) vi /etc/fstab (to make quota entry permanent)
5.) quotaon (quotaoff for turning off)
6.) quota -v (to see the limits)

HTH
