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 lim‐
22 its for root are typically not enforced.
23
24 This module is stackable.
25
27 default_quota:uid = UID
28 UID specifies the user ID of the quota record where the default user
29 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 stor‐
37 ing the default user quota will be reported as having a quota of
38 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
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:

50 [global]
51 vfs objects = default_quota
52 default_quota:uid = 65535
53 default_quota:uid nolimit = yes

60 The original Samba software and related utilities were created by
61 Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open
62 Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed.
