How can I set up disk quotas on a remote server in a Samba environment?
- by graf_ignotiev
I've been working with an install of Ubuntu 8.04 and Samba.
I'm trying to set up user disk space quotas for our shared drive. That is, each user will have their own folder on our Network Attached Storage (NAS) that has a size limit. I can successfully mount the shared drive, but I can't figure out how to set quotas on it (I think smbcquota might work, but I'm not sure).
It's been suggested to me to give each user a share on the shared drive or to use NFS. Unfortunately, neither option works for my purposes.
Does anyone know how I could give users a quota on my NAS?
