thank you to all those who suggested "quota -v" but unfortunately that doesn't seem to work...
clinton% quota -v cummings Disk quotas for cummings (uid 1575): Filesystem usage quota limit timeleft files quota limit timeleft clinton%
so there is no information. quotad is supposed to be supported, but it doesn't seem to be so...

Solaris NFS clients: /usr/sbin/quota -v
BSD NFS clients: /usr/bin/quota
CIFS clients: Can't recall; I think the Windows Explorer only shows tree quota (it's been a while)
Note: you should set the `number of files' quota as well, otherwise a rogue program or user could easily chew up all the inodes on the filer without impacting their `disk usage' quota.
