Remote quotas

This is a discussion on Remote quotas within the aix forums in Operating Systems category; Did you know how to make the commande: quota -u username working on an AIX (5.1/5.2) server when the quota is on a remote NFS partition (NFS serveur is a linux debian sarge box) ? The filesystem is mounted with autofs, options: -rw,intr,hard,proto=udp I've tried the quota option but it do not works for NFS filesystems. The rpc.rquotad is runing on the nfs server and I can use the quota -u username command from a linux fedora box without any problem but not from an AIX box. Thanks for your help. Patrick...

Default Remote quotas

Did you know how to make the commande:

quota -u username

working on an AIX (5.1/5.2) server when the quota is on a remote NFS
partition (NFS serveur is a linux debian sarge box) ? The filesystem is
mounted with autofs, options: -rw,intr,hard,proto=udp

I've tried the "quota" option but it do not works for NFS filesystems.

The rpc.rquotad is runing on the nfs server and I can use the
"quota -u username"
command from a linux fedora box without any problem but not from an AIX box.

Thanks for your help.

Mount the remote nfs export directly - thus bypassing the automount -
and check with the quota command again.
