Re: Users and Groups module/Quotas module

[Jamie C. <jca...@we...>]

Ok, I see the cause of this .. webmin is calling the edquota command
to set the new user's quotas before it is converted to /etc/master.passwd
file to /etc/passwd . This will be fixed in the next release, due very soon ..
or I can send you an updated module if you like?
