since the chroot stuff didnt work out, and the author of the tip never replied to my request for help i can take the nodev option out, but would like to keep the nosuid option. BUT i can take it off too, its not a huge deal. just wanted to know if/why those files appeared to need to be suid.
I was tinkering with quotas on my own box (just for fun :) ) a while ago, my /home is mounted nosuid,nodev as well and quotas worked fine, the quota.user,quota.group are just data files they do not need to be suid (and are not)
i think you have a unrelated problem here.i was using 2.2.12 (or maybe 11) but its a redhat system have not tried quotas on debian yet. (i really have no use for them other then for my own amusement)
