I'm pretty sure that rquota v2 is just a Linux thing. I think they
had it long before NFSv4 was standardized. Plus I'd be surprised
if it was a part of NFSv4. I don't believe that rquota v1 was a
part of NFSv2 or NFSv3.
AFAIK IRIX (6.5.7 and earlier) don't support remote group quotas.
I see newer versions of IRIX (6.5.17f) support do local group
quotas. Maybe they've added remote group quotas too? The
rpcsvc/rquota.h and a rpcinfo -p seems to inidicate that they
haven't.
I know that Cray UNICOS and UNICOS/mk don't support remote quotas
at all -- NC1FS quotas are way different than the BSD style quotas
that everone else uses.
