You can also use "quota -r" to dump out the raw quota data. Simple answer is, internally the quota system maintains its block counts by counting the # of blocks that would be returned by stat(2) in the st_blocks field, which is the # of 512-byte blocks used by the file. Externally, (e.g. what it displays, takes as input) is 1024-byte blocks counts. -- Mike Pritchard mpp @ FreeBSD.org "If tyranny and oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy." - James Madison (1787) _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
