-   Is there a way that I can set up my Linux as a server with Samba so that Windows workstations can use it and limit the amount of space a user or group can use on a share?
For example, I create a share on a 65 Gb partition but want only for user to use up to 2 Gb of space on that share and no more, is there a way?
Thanks for the support...

-   Install the 'quota' package and read up on how to properly configure it for your
system: 'man quota'.
