quota

(1/1)

Master of Reality:
say i wanted to give  user a certain amount of space in my web directory. Would the best way to do that be with user quotas??

I set fstab to have usrquotas on the partition but do i really need to restart linux do enable it?

voidmain:
No, just remount the partition you turned on quotas for.

If it's your root file system you'll need to bring it down to single user mode:

# telinit 1
# mount / -o remount
# telinit 5 (or 3 whatever you use)
