AFAIK, no (see man mount, no quota option listed for reiser). Use a real
FS, like XFS ;-).

IMHO, ReiserFS is usually useful for filesystems that don't need quota
support, things like mail queues, proxy caches etc. For the places you
want quotas (places users can write), you probably want good large-file
performance and may want acl support, so ext3, or ever better, XFS are
more suited here.

quotas on XFS are also just so much easier to setup than ext3, and
update almost immediately, plus normal users can check their quota,
(apparently not possible on ext3, maybe also not on reiser). With XFS on
our fileserver, I can even check the quota on the NFS mounts as a normal
user.
