Hmm. I've been FTP-ing files I've downloaded from Win2000 in order to
access them from the linux box. I am happy to say that I've just got the
following error message in my FTP client...
"425 Data connection error: Disk quota exceeded"
Doing "quotastats" on the Virtual sever shows that indeed quotas are enabled
and that the current size is very near the 10MB limit I set.
Woo-hoo - no kernel compiling for me!! ;-)
