Hi everybody.
My changes that enables quota-support in Samba, is in now and I
encurage everybody that have a need for quotas it to test it.
Nothing fundamental has been changed since Samba 1.*. Still the code
need to be tested on all the systems. The most important changes in
my opinion.
*) The input/output variables no longer are int but SMB_BIG_UINT,
same as dfree uses.
*) Quotas-files are splitted up in two files, one with th actual
system-dependant quotas-code and one with a system-independant
dummy code that allways fails (returns FALSE). The later is
compiled in when "--with-quotas" is NOT selected during
configure.
I have tested the code on Solaris_x86 2.6 but I find no reason why it
would not work on Solaris for Sparc.
As I have no root-access to the other systems for which code exists
in quotas.c I would like if other could confirm/deny if the code
works on these systems. The OS's in question are LINUX, CRAY,
SunOS-4, OSF1, IRIX 6.2, AIX, HPUX, FreeBSD & OpenBSD.
Of course, anybody that wants to add support for other platforms are
welcome. But the final decition is allways in the hands of the
great Samba team.
