Hey list,
I'm trying to turn on quotas and gosh darn it isn't working. I went ahead and
followed the steps I found online for recompiling the kernel to make
sure quotas were enabled, so as far as I can tell quotas are enabled in the
kernel, and I put the aquota.user and aquota.group files in the root of the
filesystem I want to quota (/home). I just touched them and chmod'ed them to
600. So when I reboot the machine or run quotaon, it gives me the following
error:
quotaon: using /home/aquota.group on /dev/hda5: Invalid
argument
quotaon: using /home/aquota.user on /dev/hda5: Invalid argument
Now, the arguments I gave quotaon where just -avug, the usual ones. Anyone
run into a problem like this? I'm stumped.
Possibily pertinent info:
Redhat 7.2
linux-2.4.7-10 kernel (custom -
quotas enabled - not really custom now is it)
quota-3.01pre9-3
ext3
filesystem (shouldn't matter, should it?)
Thanks for any help.
