The problem seems to be in the kernel. Please try upgrading to rc5-ac1.

Hi!
Just installed a new linux (debian) box, with core 2.4.19 kernel.
When i installed the quota, it created a aquota.user file, but quotaon gives me an error, that quota.user not found. When i tried to force (with -F) to the new version, it says 'fs type not supported' or something.
Ok then, i switched back to quota.user, and it works, but - something wrong with the grace period.
I added soft-quota 50M and hard quota 60M. But looks like the limit is 50M, not 60 (i can't create files when i'm over 50 megs). I tried 'edquota -t', but there is the default 7days. The grace column empty in 'repquota -au' .
This is normal? I never used quota before. I installed the 3.06 instead of the woody default (3.04 i think), but that's same.

Hi !
just installed 2.4.19-rc3-ac2 and am trying to get my userquota running again.
Problem: userquota does not seem to work (groupquota gives no error)
Message:
root@ch:~/package# quotaon -v -F vfsold /dev/sdb3
quotaon: using /home/quota.user on /dev/sdb3 [/home]: Invalid argument
quotaon: Maybe create new quota files with quotacheck(8)?
root@ch:~/package# quotaon /dev/sdb3
quotaon: using /home/quota.user on /dev/sdb3 [/home]: Invalid argument
quotaon: Maybe create new quota files with quotacheck(8)?
I have tryed to old the new etc etc.... the filesystem is an ext3 filesystem.. maybe this is not functioning correctly ?????
A small grep "Invalid" on the sourcecode seems to tell me this error message should only be valid on XFS filesystems ????
Please .. help ..
Yours,
Christiaan den Besten
