I was never able to use the quota functions of samba. I use
Suse 8.2 with Samba 3.0.3 and XFS. Even the latest samba version
doesn't recognize quotas correctly. For me quota code is broken
since beginning in samba.

To get them displayed I use a dirty hack.
In smb.conf I've added the following line:
dfree command = "/etc/script.sh %U"

script.sh:
#!/bin/sh
used_space=`/usr/bin/quota -u $1 | tail -1 | awk '{print $2}'`
quota_space=`/usr/bin/quota -u $1 | tail -1 | awk '{print $4}'`
used_files=`/usr/bin/quota -u $1 | tail -1 | awk '{print $5}'`
quota_files=`/usr/bin/quota -u $1 | tail -1 | awk '{print $7}'`
if [ "$used_files" == "$quota_files" ];
    then used_space=$quota_space
    fi
free_space=`expr $quota_space - $used_space`
echo "$quota_space $free_space"
