Doubt with quotas

M

MauroEldritch

Hi.

I followed the Handbook in order to make quotas for my users.

I've issued edquota Leonardo, and then modified it to fit:

Code: 
Quotas for user Leonardo:
/: in use: 0k, limits (soft = 1048576k, hard = 1048576k)
        inodes in use: 0, limits (soft = 1048576, hard = 1048576)

Whenever I try to do quota -u Leonardo it answers with Disk quotas for user Leonardo (uid xxx): none

Is this ok?

Everything seems fine in the other hand, I've added the userquota to /etc/fstab, also added

Code: 
quota_enable="YES"
check_quotas="NO"

following older posts, I've even tried

Code: 
enable_quotas="YES"
check_quotas="NO"

but doesn't seems to work. Is "none" output ok?, am I missing something? It just seems like the quota wasn't applied, if I'm not wrong.

Thanks in advance.
 
Hi Mauro,

Can you show both outputs?
Code: 
# repquota -avug | grep username
# repquota -avug | grep groupname
 
No output at all.

Without grep, general output is:

Code: 
*** Report for user quotas on / (/dev/ada0p2)
                           Block  limits                    File  limits
User                  used   soft   hard  grace     used    soft    hard  grace
 
Well, assuming that you haven't forgot any step of the section 19.13. File System Quotas. You need invoke edquota(8)() as following: # edquota -u user

Note that the list of file systems with user quotas is determined from /etc/fstab. So be sure you added the quota to the fstab(5)() options, e.g.:
Code: 
/dev/ada0p2    /home    ufs     rw,userquota,groupquota    2  2

To remount the partition, run # mount /home

Also use # quotacheck -a to check all the file systems indicated in /etc/fstab to be read-write with disk quotas. See quotacheck(8)() man page for more details.
