Re: [Samba] smbcquotas tells me that quotas are not enabled
Luke Hamilton put forth on 7/9/2010 3:05 PM: I think you're right in that quotas aren't enabled on the NAS itself and there doesn't appear to be any way of doing so.

I think you're right in that quotas aren't enabled on the NAS itself and there doesn't appear to be any way of doing so. If I'm to do this, I may have to invent some way of enforcing quotas for the remote machine at the client. That NAS runs on Linux. A few minutes of googling just now reveals there are OS hacks for it. You might go that route. But before I get elbow deep in Perl code, I want to try putting a quota on one of the Samba shares.

Connected to our network I have a buffalo linkstation acting as Network Attached Storage (NAS), which I have successfully mounted on the local file system. Using smbcquotas I believe I can set up a quota for each user on the NAS. To get started, I run the command: smbcquotas //192.168.1.4/share -S FSQFLAGS:QUOTA_ENABLED -A /etc/.credentials Is 192.168.1.4 the Buffalo NAS? If so... But I get the error: Quotas are not enabled on this share. Failed to open \$Extend\$Quota:$Q:$INDEX_ALLOCATION NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED. Does the Buffalo support NTFS5 and is quota capability enabled on the Buffalo SMB server? I'm trying to figure out why my command fails. Shouldn't that enable quotas in the first place? Not if the Buffalo NAS isn't already configured to support quotas. As I understand it, this command sends a packet to a remote SMB server telling it how to (re)configure quotas on a given share. If quota capability isn't already enabled on the remote SMB server this command will fail. I think that is what is happening here. I'm no expert on this, just making a somewhat educated guess.
