I wasn't aware that you could do default per-user quotas, so I decided to give this a try. After fixing up a couple important folks like root and www so that they would have no quota, I have the following:
# Quota Target type disk files # ------------- ----- ---- -----
user@/vol/vol0 999M 50K0 user 999G 999K 15 user 999G 999K 25 user 999G 999K /www tree 22G /ftp tree 7G /mail tree 6G /moss tree 2G
Maybe, I'm reading this wrong but I see all the users having quotas. The default setting takes precedence over any lines following it. Am I wrong?
We have YP - can I map usernames to UIDs using YP, or will this be a large amount of overhead?
You can, but YP support in NACs is shakey. If you're using 5.2x you should be using a patch release like 5.2.1P1 or 5.2.1P2. I hope they roled in these patches into 5.3. I haven't looked into the list of fixed bugs for 5.3 yet.
Any ideas how sendmail will handle it when they get email?
It won't deliver, hence, unfortunately, we don't have quotas on mail. Fortunately, we moved mail from a local filesystem to IMAP/POP servers which use databases.
