NAME

6       vfs_default_quota - store default quota records for Windows clients
7

SYNOPSIS

9       vfs objects = default_quota
10

DESCRIPTION

12       This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.
13
14       Many common quota implementations only store quotas for users and
15       groups, but do not store a default quota. The vfs_default_quota module
16       allows Samba to store default quota values which can be examined using
17       the Windows Explorer interface.
18
19       By default, Samba returns NO_LIMIT the default quota and refuses to
20       update them.  vfs_default_quota maps the default quota to the quota
21       record of a user. By default the root user is taken because quota
22       limits for root are typically not enforced.
23
24       This module is stackable.

OPTIONS

27       default_quota:uid = UID
28           UID specifies the user ID of the quota record where the default
29           user quota values are stored.
30
31       default_quota:gid = GID
32           GID specifies the group ID of the quota record where the default
33           group quota values are stored.
34
35       default_quota:uid nolimit = BOOL
36           If this parameter is True, then the user whose quota record is
37           storing the default user quota will be reported as having a quota
38           of NO_LIMIT. Otherwise, the stored values will be reported.
39
40       default_quota:gid nolimit = BOOL
41           If this parameter is True, then the group whose quota record is
42           storing the default group quota will be reported as having a quota
43           of NO_LIMIT. Otherwise, the stored values will be reported.
44

EXAMPLES

46       Store the default quota record in the quota record for the user with ID
47       65535 and report that user as having no quota limits:
48
49                   [global]
50                vfs objects = default_quota
51                default_quota:uid = 65535
52                default_quota:uid nolimit = yes
