I'm not sure exactly why you want to do that, but you can certainly do it with ZFS, after you create a pool (e.g. mypool) you can do this: # zfs create mypool/mydirectory # zfs set quota=5G mypool/mydirectory There's a ZFS how-to on Sun's site here: http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/howtoguides/zfshowto.jsp ./mk -- Matthew Kolb m.kolb at mac.com
