Debian Beta Testing

could someone give me info on how to enable quota's?
apt-get update
apt-get install quota quotatool
(i prefer to answer no in the daily reminder question)

then edit the file:
/etc/fstab

and in the partitions who want quota add in options: grpquota,usrquota
as example the line:
/dev/hda7 /home ext3 suid,dev,exec 0 2

changed to:
/dev/hda7 /home ext3 grpquota,suid,dev,usrquota,exec 0 2

then run:
touch /home/quota.user /home/quota.group
(change the home with your partition)
chmod 600 /home/quota.*
mount -o remount /home
quotacheck -avugm
quotaon -avug


if you have any problem contact me again.

Christos
 
I have in the file you specified the following information:
Code:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
proc            /proc           proc    defaults        0       0
/dev/sdb1       /               ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
/dev/sdb5       none            swap    sw              0       0
/dev/hda        /media/cdrom0   iso9660 ro,user,noauto  0       0

I couldn't find:
/dev/hda7 /home ext3 suid,dev,exec 0 2
in it

this is just my example.
add this options to the partition you want to add the quotas.
If you are not sure you can contact me with pm
 
As far as I am aware DirectAdmin does not automatically edit fstab for any of the supported Operating Systems. Some things should be left to the administrator.

Not only this but in freebsd as example it is needed to rebuild the kernel with quota support.
directadmin is really 100% supported but need (like any other OS) a basic config from the user

Hi,
spamassassin and clamav can be installed like any other OS. I have the same install in both freebsd and debian servers.
APF is not compatible with debian.
You can use kiss or you can install the webmin-firewall module so you can easy config your firewall from web interface.
If you not know to install spamassassin or clamav in any os inform me and i provide you a mini how-to.
