Enable Quota on FreeBSD 6.2
Need to recompile kernel.
cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf
cp GENERIC MYKERNEL
Edit the file MYKERNEL and add the line
options QUOTA
Then run the following commands:
/usr/sbin/config MYKERNEL
cd ../compile/MYKERNEL
make depend
make
make install
——
To Enable Quota
Edit the file /etc/fstab and look for the entry, in which the directory /home is mentioned, e.g.
/dev/ad0s1d /home ufs rw 2 2
Add the words userquota and groupquota as follows:
/dev/ad0s1d /home ufs rw,userquota,groupquota 2 2
To enable quota at boot time you have to add the following lines to /etc/rc.conf:
quota_enable=”YES”
check_quotas=”YES”
Reboot the system:
shutdown -r now
After the reboot run the following commands:
quotacheck -a
quotaon -a
Install the setquota-Tool at last:
pkg_add -r setquota
