I've learned the hard way that qouta -f is doing bad things to my setup. While I have things under control now, unfortunately i still didn't find time to examine in detail what's going on. For now i suggest you to parse quota files directly. Maybe we can start with posting our relevant configs: altnamespace: no hashimapspool: 1 quotawarn: 90 unixhierarchysep: 1 virtdomains: 1 I think these are that matter to the quota handling code. -- Jure Pečar http://jure.pecar.org/ --- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
