Hi All,
I am trying to find a way to limit user disk space with multiple users. I heard something about using CLI and Quota, but I tried a man search but nothing. Has anyone ever done this and if so how. I have users who are using up gigs and I need to stop it. I don't want to delete thier data.

Looks like it would be really good for folks who have kids that want to suck down ever MP3 on the internet.
It's way beyond anything that I would try to do. Looks like it would make for a great piece of shareware.

I also found this.
It seems a disk quota system might be part of OSX Server. I wonder if they slapped a pretty face on it? Something you might want to look into if this is for your job and your employeer can pay for it.

I think this is only for web accounts when you are using Mac OS X as a web server.

Thanks, for all the info.
I do not want to rebuild the kernel, and the other looks promising.
I will try it on a test machine first.
