Subject: Disk/Partition storage quotas: an easier way?
Hello. I've got an Ubuntu 8.04 box, and I need to add a storage quota for all users on my 'home' partition. I'm about to dig my way through a tutorial on how to do that through editing config files. But I was wondering if there might be some kind of program I could install that would make it easier for me. I didn't see anything obvious in my Debian repository.

Wow, I was going to just look it up on my laptop here and fill you in, but I realize that all the machines on which I have quotas are Fedora machines. You just manage quotas with the users GUI there. But I can't find anything on my Kubuntu machine! Here's a link that might be helpful with the config files though. http://www.debianadmin.com/implement-and-manage-disk-quotas-in-linux.html
