VFS_DEFAULT_QUOTA(8)					    System Administration tools 				      VFS_DEFAULT_QUOTA(8)

NAME
vfs_default_quota - store default quota records for Windows clients SYNOPSIS
vfs objects = default_quota DESCRIPTION
This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite. Many common quota implementations only store quotas for users and groups, but do not store a default quota. The vfs_default_quota module allows Samba to store default quota values which can be examined using the Windows Explorer interface. By default, Samba returns NO_LIMIT the default quota and refuses to update them. vfs_default_quota maps the default quota to the quota record of a user. By default the root user is taken because quota limits for root are typically not enforced. This module is stackable. OPTIONS
default_quota:uid = UID UID specifies the user ID of the quota record where the default user quota values are stored. default_quota:gid = GID GID specifies the group ID of the quota record where the default group quota values are stored. default_quota:uid nolimit = BOOL If this parameter is True, then the user whose quota record is storing the default user quota will be reported as having a quota of NO_LIMIT. Otherwise, the stored values will be reported. default_quota:gid nolimit = BOOL If this parameter is True, then the group whose quota record is storing the default group quota will be reported as having a quota of NO_LIMIT. Otherwise, the stored values will be reported. EXAMPLES
Store the default quota record in the quota record for the user with ID 65535 and report that user as having no quota limits: [global] vfs objects = default_quota default_quota:uid = 65535 default_quota:uid nolimit = yes VERSION
This man page is correct for version 3.0.25 of the Samba suite. AUTHOR
The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed. Samba 3.5 06/18/2010 VFS_DEFAULT_QUOTA(8)

NAME
convertquota - convert quota from old file format to new one SYNOPSIS
convertquota [ -ug ] [ -e | -f ] filesystem DESCRIPTION
convertquota converts old quota files quota.user and quota.group to files aquota.user and aquota.group in new format currently used by 2.4.0-ac? and newer or by Red Hat Linux 2.4 kernels on filesystem. New file format allows using quotas for 32-bit uids / gids, setting quotas for root, accounting used space in bytes (and so allowing use of quotas in ReiserFS) and it is also architecture independent. This format introduces Radix Tree (a simple form of tree structure) to quota file. OPTIONS
-u convert user quota file. This is the default. -g convert group quota file. -f convert from old file format to new one. This is the default. -e convert new file format from big endian to little endian. -V print version information. FILES
aquota.user new user quota file aquota.group new group quota file SEE ALSO
