vfs_default_quota(8) vfs_default_quota(8)
NAME
vfs_default_quota - store default quota records for Windows clients
SYNOPSIS
vfs objects = default_quota
DESCRIPTION
This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.
Many common quota implementations only store quotas for users and
groups, but do not store a default quota. The vfs_default_quota module
allows Samba to store default quota values which can be examined using
the Windows Explorer interface.
By default, Samba returns NO_LIMIT the default quota and refuses to
update them. vfs_default_quota maps the default quota to the quota
record of a user. By default the root user is taken because quota lim-
its for root are typically not enforced.
This module is stackable.
OPTIONS
default_quota:uid = UID
UID specifies the user ID of the quota record where the default user
quota values are stored.
default_quota:gid = GID
GID specifies the group ID of the quota record where the default
group quota values are stored.
default_quota:uid nolimit = BOOL
If this parameter is True, then the user whose quota record is stor-
ing the default user quota will be reported as having a quota of
NO_LIMIT. Otherwise, the stored values will be reported.
default_quota:gid nolimit = BOOL
If this parameter is True, then the group whose quota record is
storing the default group quota will be reported as having a quota
of NO_LIMIT. Otherwise, the stored values will be reported.
EXAMPLES
Store the default quota record in the quota record for the user with ID
65535 and report that user as having no quota limits:
[global]
vfs objects = default_quota
default_quota:uid = 65535
default_quota:uid nolimit = yes
VERSION
This man page is correct for version 3.0.25 of the Samba suite.
