Hi,

I would like to know how to enable user quota on my Debian install. Basically I would like to put a disk quota on the /home directory for my user.

Thanks for help.

Regards,
Kevin

I'll take a stab...

apt-get install quota

Then, read this:

Thanks for the information... I am playing and learning with it right now, hope to get it works.

BTW, whenever I mount a file system to /dev/ubde... I am not able to log in. The server seems to be just hanging .....

If I move whatever file system that I mounted to /dev/ubde to another one, like /dev/ubdf.... then everything works fine.

I am not sure if there is something I did wrong.. or not. But just would like to let you know about this.

Thanks for help.

Regards,
Kevin

Hmm -- I just tested this with a Debian filesystem and a handful of ext3 disk images. No problems mounting on /dev/ubde, or any other ubd devices.

Did you reboot your Linode after adding the drive to the configuration?

Yes, I did a reboot right after. There could be something I did wrong.... I will give it a try again sometime to see if it happens again.

Is there any debug step that you would like me to run throguh in case this happens to me again?

Regards,
Kevin
