help with filesystem quotas
Howdy folks,
I'm setting up a Deb woody server and want quota support on /home just
in case we need to get serious. I have quota support in the kernel and
the following in /etc/fstab:
/dev/sda6 /home ext3 defaults,data=journal,usrquota 0
2
I run #quotacheck -c /home
and get this:
-rw------- 1 root staff 7168 Aug 28 12:11 aquota.user
in /home.
However, when I run: #quotaon /home I get this:
quotaon: using /home/quota.user on /dev/sda6 [/home]: Invalid argument
quotaon: Maybe create new quota files with quotacheck(8)?
hmmm. ???
at first I thought it was due to quotaon not wanting to use version2
quota files, so I had quotacheck create one of those (quota.user) and i
got the exact same message. I can't believe I can't get something this
simple to work. any ideas? ext3 is mounted data=journal, could that be
it?
thanks,
Dave
