weird quota issue
I've been running 2.4.9-31 kernel for awhile now..while i was running this kernel, i frequently used quota stuff
meaning id add an account, run edquota -u username
and set their soft limit, and their hard limit
e.g if i want them to have a 6mb limit
id set their soft limit to : 5000
hard limit to : 6000
so thats that....
so last night i decided to upgrade to 2.4.19 kernel last night.
in the menu config
under File systems ---->
i checked Quota support (put a asterik)
compiled.... kernel booted fine.
2.4.19 #1 Sun Nov 3 02:52:14 EST 2002 i686 unknown
anyhow
i just did adduser dooba
edquota -u dooba
i set soft limit to 5000
hard limit to 6000
then i su'ed to that username, and wgetted a 60mb file, and it didnt even stop me at all
i'm confused. Is there something i missed?
bottom line:
ill add a user, set a quota for them, but it doesnt work...
the user can go past their limit
doesnt even say anything
suron:/usr/src/linux# dmesg | grep quota
VFS: Diskquotas version dquot_6.4.0 initialized
Anyone have any ideas.
If i can't get this to work then ill probably have to go back to 2.4.9 because having a working quota system is important.
