+ <title>default_quota</title>
+
+ <para>
+ This module allows the default quota values, in the windows explorer GUI, to be stored on a Samba-3 server.
+ The challenge is that linux filesystems only store quotas for users and groups, but no default quotas.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Samba returns NO_LIMIT as the default quotas by default and refuses to update them. With this module you
+ can store the default quotas that are reported to a windows client, in the quota record of a user. By
+ default the root user is taken because quota limits for root are typically not enforced.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ This module takes 2 parametric entries in the &mb.conf; file. The default prefix for each is the
+ <quote>default_quota</quote>. This can be overwrittem when you load the module in the <emphasis>vfs
+ modules</emphasis> parameter like this:
+<screen>
+vfs modules = default_quota:myprefix)
+</screen>
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The parametric entries that may be specified for the default_quotas module are:
+ </para>
+
+ <variablelist>
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>prefix:uid</term>
+ <listitem><para>
+ This parameter takes a integer argument that specifies the uid of the quota record that will be
+ used for storing the default user quotas.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The default value is 0 (for root user). An example of use is:
+<screen>
+default_quota:uid = 65534
+</screen>
+ </para></listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>prefix:uid nolimit</term>
+ <listitem><para>
+ This parameter takes a boolean argument that specifies if the stored default quota values also be
+ reported for the user record, or if the value <constant>NO_LIMIT</constant> should be reported to
+ the windows client for the user specified by the <parameter>prefix:uid</parameter> parameter.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The default value is <constant>yes</constant> (which means to report NO_LIMIT). An example of use
+ is shown here:
+<screen>
+default_quota:uid nolimit = no
+</screen>
+ </para></listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>prefix>:gid</term>
+ <listitem><para>
+ This parameter takes an integer argument, it's just like the <parameter>prefix>:uid</parameter> but
+ for group quotas. NOTE: group quotas are not supported from the windows explorer.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The default value is 0 (for root group). An example of use is shown here:
+<screen>
+default_quota:gid = 65534
+</screen>
+ </para></listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>prefix>:gid nolimit</term>
+ <listitem><para>
+ This parameter takes a boolean argument, just like the <parameter>prefix>:uid nolimit</parameter>
