Hmmm.Ok, for starters:
-) How do you enable quotas >32bit?
Say luser X may produce 5GB data trash *g*?
-) How do you express with quotas that you don't care about files below x
but REALLY care about the other ones. Example: I (with some of our
clients) ``don't care'' about /var, because on these sites only lpr
will be affected. WHAT I care about is /home, that contains data files
from software that I didn't test for ``disk full'' conditions.
