VFS_DEFAULT_QUOTA(1M) System Administration tools VFS_DEFAULT_QUOTA(1M)NAMEvfs_default_quota - store default quota records for Windows clients
SYNOPSIS
vfs objects = default_quota
DESCRIPTION
This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.
Many common quota implementations only store quotas for users and
groups, but do not store a default quota. The vfs_default_quota module
allows Samba to store default quota values which can be examined using
the Windows Explorer interface.
By default, Samba returns NO_LIMIT the default quota and refuses to
update them. vfs_default_quota maps the default quota to the quota
record of a user. By default the root user is taken because quota
limits for root are typically not enforced.
This module is stackable.
OPTIONS
default_quota:uid = UID
UID specifies the user ID of the quota record where the default
user quota values are stored.
default_quota:gid = GID
GID specifies the group ID of the quota record where the default
group quota values are stored.
default_quota:uid nolimit = BOOL
If this parameter is True, then the user whose quota record is
storing the default user quota will be reported as having a quota
of NO_LIMIT. Otherwise, the stored values will be reported.
default_quota:gid nolimit = BOOL
If this parameter is True, then the group whose quota record is
storing the default group quota will be reported as having a quota
of NO_LIMIT. Otherwise, the stored values will be reported.
EXAMPLES
Store the default quota record in the quota record for the user with ID
65535 and report that user as having no quota limits:
[global]
vfs objects = default_quota
default_quota:uid = 65535
default_quota:uid nolimit = yes
VERSION
This man page is correct for version 3.0.25 of the Samba suite.
AUTHOR
The original Samba software and related utilities were created by
Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open
Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed.

NOTES
Source code for Samba is available in the SUNWsmbaS package.
Samba(7) delivers the set of four SMF(5) services as can be seen from
the following example:
$ svcs samba wins winbind swat
STATE STIME FMRI
disabled Apr_21 svc:/network/samba:default
disabled Apr_21 svc:/network/winbind:default
disabled Apr_21 svc:/network/wins:default
disabled Apr_21 svc:/network/swat:default
where the services are:
"samba"
runs the smbd daemon managing the CIFS sessions
"wins"
runs the nmbd daemon enabling the browsing (WINS)
"winbind"
runs the winbindd daemon making the domain idmap
"swat"
Samba Web Administration Tool is a service providing access to
browser-based Samba administration interface and on-line
documentation. The service runs on software loopback network
interface on port 901/tcp, i.e. opening "http://localhost:901/" in
browser will access the SWAT service on local machine.
Please note: SWAT uses HTTP Basic Authentication scheme where user name
and passwords are sent over the network in clear text. In the SWAT case
the user name is root. Transferring such sensitive data is advisable
only on the software loopback network interface or over secure
networks.
