The confusion arises because the quote spec - marshalls disk limits and quota using the same mechanism (contrary to NFS) and - the quota spec introduces a new property for authoring quota. Why doesn't the quota spec just *copy* the relevant parts of NFS (all we need to is map four property names)? Julian -- <green/>bytes GmbH -- http://www.greenbytes.de -- tel:+492512807760
