Hello,
I have a problem with disk quotas, I have installed SUSE 6.4, and I want to active quotas in one file system, I have changed /etc/fstab
Before activate quotas the line was:
/dev/hda4 /var reiserfs defaults 1 2
After activate quotas the line is:
/dev/hda4 /var reiserfs defaults,usrquota 1 2
I execute quotaon -auvg but I don't obtain any answer, and when I reboot the system, many errors appears, can't start many services like cron and others.
Can you help me?.
First, you have to create the quota.user and quota.group files on the /var
partition:
(as root)
cd /var
touch quota.user
touch quota.group
chmod 600 quota.user
chmod 600 quota.group
then you have to set the quotas for each users and/or groups:
edquota -u <username>
edquota -g <groupname>
then you can activate the quotas:
quotaon -auvg
Regards...
