Thanks for your reply.

Yes, several users under one linux user's space, so it seems like there is no way to control this using linux or Samba.

Only possible way is to write my own custom script to monitor the folders and remove BIG files?

Hi All,

I am using Samaba for my network users and I run out of space soon as so many users store BIG files on the share folders.

Is there a way to specify the max size for a file that can be stored using Samaba?

Or At least max size for a folder will also help.

The only thing I'm aware of is file systems quotas. That will restrict a user's space usage, but will let them store big files up to the size of their quota. If you are using a simple set-up where every person uses the same username and password, it will restrict all users to the same space.
