I was wondering if any one knew of an application to do quota editing (on 2.4.x kernels) from the command line the 'quotatool' package under debian only seems to work for the old 2.2.x style quota.user files and not the aquota.user files that 2.4.x uses.
Any ideas welcome :)
RedHat and most UNIX platforms use the following commands:-
edquota : to manage quotas.
edquota just spawns an ASCII file, which is hardly command line. There is no way to specifiy command line options such as a soft block of 30000 lets say from what i can see, do you know something diffrent?
quota : to view quota usage by user or group. quotacheck : to re-calculate and check quota information. quotaon : to enable quotas on a volume
quotactl : a lib. hook to manipulate quotas in programs.
More information is available usint man quota and looking at the list of associated progarms at the end of the man page.
