[Samba] 3.6.9 samba does not propagate (or show) Linux quota for windows users to see it

[Karel Lang AFD]

Hi Rowland,
thanks for the hint!

Mine output is a little different to yours:


smbd -b | grep 'QUOTA'
    HAVE_SYS_QUOTA_H
    HAVE_LINUX_XFS_QUOTAS
    HAVE_QUOTACTL_LINUX
    HAVE_SYS_QUOTAS
    HAVE_XFS_QUOTAS
    WITH_QUOTAS
    WITH_QUOTAS

missing specifically eg. "HAVE_GETQUOTA_RSLT_GETQUOTA_RSLT_U"

Could this be a problem? This is starting to get to be a bit beyond my 
'learning curve' i achieved so far at SAmba, i'm afraid ..

Karel
