Hi All,

I'm getting the following error when running the command "quotaon -avug" :

quotaon : using //quota.group on /dev/hda3: Invalid argument
quotaon : using //quota.user on /dev/hda3 : Invalid argument
**************************

I've added the usrquota,grpquota to /etc/fstab and rebooted.

I've run "quotacheck -avug" and I get the message "Please stop all programs 
writing to filesystem or use the -m flag to force checking"
I then run "quotacheck -avugm" and it seems to work and the /quota.user and 
/quota.group files are updated.

I've noticed that the /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit file has quota commands in it (I 
suspect that they were put there by the rpm?) and they seem to be invoked 
when I put the usrquota/grpquota entries in /etc/fstab.  I've noticed errors 
during startup such as above
"quotaon : using //quota.group on /dev/hda3: Invalid argument".


I've got the quota rpm installed "quota-3.01pre9-3".

If I specify the path to the quota.user and quota.group files in /etc/fstab 
I get the errors (same as above but missing one of the "/" - the correct 
path):

"quotaon : using /quota.group on /dev/hda3: Invalid argument
quotaon : using /quota.user on /dev/hda3 : Invalid argument"


I've followed the instructions in the mini howto but it is still not 
working.

Please help,

Regards
Anthony
