system quota error

[dannyman1234]

Hello

This is going above my head, since im a newbie:

I added a new user:

Then I get this:

User testt created



Details


Unix User created successfully

Error with system Quotas
sh: /usr/sbin/setquota: No such file or directory
Debug Guide
User's data directory created successfully
Domains directory created successfully
Domains directory created successfully in user's home



Domain Created Successfully

User added to ssh config file.

in my /etc/fstab its this:

/dev/sda2
/ ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/sda1 none swap sw 0 0

What should I change? and what is the whole meaning of this error?

Generally it means your server doesn't support quotas.

sorry for my silly question, but what are quota's and for what is it important?

When I installed DA (Debian Etch), I had to install quota's seperate (as in apt-get way - not sure why).... as I had the same issue as OP.

With quotas on your OS will prevent users from filling your /home partition.
