The server should enforce limits if it is configured to have them, yes. But the only reason I can see why the client shouldn't also be able to put quotas on an NFS-mounted filesystem is implementation laziness. (Justfied laziness, perhaps; "laziness" carries a somewhat pejorative implication that may be not entirely deserved here, but I'm having trouble coming up with a better word.) /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML [email protected] / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
