Quota's on a Linux server
Guys,

I have one question regarding the quotas on Linux machines.
Say, there are 3 users (user1, user2, user3) in a group (group1).

I set a quota limit on the group using "edquota -g grop1" and set to hard limit to 1GB.

Does it mean, combined disc space usage of (user1, user2, user3) can not cross 1GB or individual usage can not exceed 1GB?

Please clarify.

Thanks,

The -g option sets the hard quota for the group. -u for users.

That I know. But that doesn't answer my question.
Thanks anyway.
