Hi Alexander and *, I would like linux to handle default quota limits like NTFS 5 do it. So if a new user is added to the system and start to own disk space on a filesystem he should get the default
That's a user-space problem. A new user typically won't have a writable area within /home until the sysadmin has created the new home directory, so it's really up to the sysadmin to make sure that t

It still isn't a kernel problem, but a user-space one. You need to get or write a PAM module, that will check wether quotas are set for user being authenticated and if not, set them. You could even s
consider 1 million users where only a small percentage of them will ever write to the fs ... why even store 1 million quota values needlessly at all? surely the argument for a default here isn't a te
While all the 1 milion users actualy ever LOG IN that site? And... do they ever log into that site AT THE SAME MOMENT? -- Jan 'Bulb' Hudec <bulb@xxxxxx>
what? consider a mail server (or series thereof) and quota for mail... presumably not ... most machines only allow 995,000 simultaneous logins unless you have an extra 2M in your 386 --cw
So you can only setquota for the users that actualy log in. Well, it get's complicated, but you still can setquota in the local delivery process... I know it get's a bit complicated... Because you co
Yes, it does. But since there is many more valid users than those actualy using the system, you don't want to... And a logged in user is sure valid, so no problem there, right? If it finaly got too c

I believe that the hotplug stuff does this. When a new hotpluggable pci, usb etc... device is plugged into the system, it triggers /sbin/hotplug to run to look for the appropriate kernel module to pr
