We are using Red Hat Enterprise AS 3.0. There are 100+ users connected to a single server. As the Inbox size of Mail Client (Thunderbird) for each user grows there are space constraint on the server. So I want to define a quota on mail folder for each user (say around 500 MB to 1 GB). How can I do this.

So when I issue the command below should I not get the results in GB ?
Code: Select allrepquota -sa
bob -- 87200M 400G 440G 879 0 0
dave -- 255G 400G 440G 3627 0 0
jim -- 10664M 400G 440G 230 0 0
tom -- 10737M 400G 440G 636 0 0
User bobs usage is 86GB, should 86GB not be displayed rather than 87200M?
Is there a way to set a disk quota for samba users? I've found a few guides, but they were a little to complicated for my needs. Running Ubuntu server 9.10
View 3 Replies View RelatedRunning a server using CentOS 5.5 (yum updated, x86_64), found that when using /usr/sbin/useradd to create system user, the quota for the user will default set to 5M soft and 10M hard (on /var/spool/mail partition). As remember the default setting for user quota should be both zero when create a new user.
man useradd and quota related command and no help, had any idea how to change/set the default quota when create user.
I am trying to enable quota on my /home directory for understanding how quota works. I have not made a separate partition for my /home. The logical name of the directory "/" is /dev/sda5 on my machine

What is the difference between creating a "regular" user and creating a "system" user on Linux?
For example:
Code:
adduser john
Code:
adduser --system john
Similarly it seems there are normal groups and system groups. Doing an internet search and reading man pages does not give much information on the whole concept of system and regular user/group.
How to find, what are the files (system & user) created after login to the system in RHEL 5.0?
Any single command available?
I often get responses from people who first say: "Are you sure? You want your network to be exposed to the outside world?" I am not experimenting on a Production Server of NASA or any Security Concern Department. Friends, there is no harm in experimenting on your personal computer or on a test computer which is isolated from the production environment. Look at hackers! What do they do? If they don't know how security is breached then how would they come up with security measures?
If my question reads... "How to let any user perform Administrative Tasks on a Linux System irrespective of his/her privileges on that particular system?" then I would not get the right answers in the first place. They will say... "You are letting everyone destroy your system... are you sure you want to do that?" My question is: Why should we restrict ourselves from experimenting even if it sounds weird to other people?
I give you an example where it is desirable to let an unprivileged user perform certain tasks. You want to know if there are any employees in your office who are storing videos in their home directory and filling up the disk space to a great amount. You have a department called "Command Center or Data Center Operations or Help Desk" call it whatever you would, whose work is to monitor such activities, and you create an account "monitor" for them to monitor such activities but they are not able to do them:

View 2 Replies View RelatedI installed SAMBA and SWAT, latest versions. What I want to accomplish is to give Windows users unlimited read/write access to the entire filesystem, eg. (/). Barring that, I'd like to at least be able to configure full access to individual directories.And by "unlimited", I mean being able to edit and delete everything that would be normally accessible only by the root user. I want to grant the Windows users of the shares access as if they were root users.

I have a question
Does CentOS allow unlimited connections like Windows 2003 enterprise ?
When setting up my server I noticed that I could control the amount of connections; the maximum seems to be 256. My server is currently windows 2003 server which is unlimited connections - before I change the server to F10 I need to be able to have unlimited connections (I often go over 256 connections, I have 25 web sites hosted). How do I do this on F10 or is there a better distro for web servers that have thousands of Internet connections at the one time?

I find it very strange that you can just insert Ubuntu installation CD in any PC, and have unlimited access to all users' My Documents folders on that computer. It doesn't even ask for password, nothing. I can take Ubuntu CD with me and copy data from all PCs in the company where I work.

I would like to trace a user's activity by monitoring system calls. Is there a way to use strace such that at startup it will begin tracing all system calls? Or is there any other method to automatically trace the system calls used during a user's session automatically without having to call strace manually?
