You are creating the file in the directory where you kept your script.Did you keep your script in "/home/nasadmin/quotas_michel" ?
Code:
cat /nas/cifs/usrmapperV3/autoumupload/server_2_newpasswd | cut -d\: -f1,3,5 > userlist.txt

The line which you read from user1.txt is not separated by pipe.Remove unnecessary lines from user1.txt
Code:
echo $LINE | cut -f 2 -d\| | cut -d# -f2
+++ echo Report for user quotas on filesystem user1 mounted on /root_vdm_1/user1
+++ cut -f 2 '-d|'
+++ cut -d# -f2
++ USERID=Report for user quotas on filesystem user1 mounted on /root_vdm_1/user1

Use double quotes
Code:
fgrep "$USERID" /home/nasadmin/quotas_michel/userlist.txt

one step further
Now I get the following output

fgrep \:"$USERID"\: /home/nasadmin/quotas_michel/userlist.txt
+++ fgrep ':5005 :' /home/nasadmin/quotas_michel/userlist.txt
++ UTEMP=
++ ECHO

For some reason the script places the ' ' before and behind the userid

You dont need to worry about that quotes.
Do you have string ":5005 :" in the userlist.txt file?
# 11  
Old 02-14-2007
:5005:
This one exists in userlist.txt file!!
# 12  
Old 02-14-2007
try this
Code:
fgrep ":$USERID:" /home/nasadmin/quotas_michel/userlist.txt

This gives the same result!! When I look at the fgrep command it looks like the script puts a space behind is.

this is what is searches for fgrep '5005 ' userlist.txt

The script does not include space. The space is there in the variable USERID.Try this
Code:
fgrep ":${USERID%% *}:" /home/nasadmin/quotas_michel/userlist.txt
