>Description:
The quotactl man page says this:
Currently quotas are supported only for the ``ufs'' filesystem. For
``ufs'', a command is composed of a primary command (see below) and a
command type used to interpret the id. Types are supported for interpre-
tation of user identifiers and group identifiers. The ``ufs'' specific
commands are:
This is incorrect; it is the ffs, not ufs. ufs is a hanger-on from the days
when there was just one unix filesystem. In fact, quotas will not work with
"ufs" in /etc/fstab--it must say ffs for quotacheck to run properly on my
machine.
>How-To-Repeat:
man quotactl :-)
>Fix:
As far as I know, change all occurrences of "ufs" to "ffs". I'm not really
familiar with the filesystem stuff, though, so I could be wrong.
