Quota-problem
Hello,
I'm having some trouble with the quota's I've set on our HP-UX B.11.00 U 9000/800. Well not really with the quota's because I was able to set them and get them working without a problem but the problem resides somewhere with our AS/U (Advanced Server for HP9000 Release B.04.06.07 and RFC-NETBIOS Release B.04.10). I'm not able to get the quota's working under Windows. If a user would log in on the server to his homedirectory he is not able to put more than 5MB on his space. But if he logs in with a Windows pc (which is the normal procedure here) he can copy as much as he wants on the same homedirectory...
Anyone?
