[Samba] samba --with-quotas

[Karen R McArthur]

We have a rhel4 system running samba - domain user accounts - NFS disk 
space.  All updates and software patches have been applies through rhn. 
  Since samba was installed with redhat provided rpms, --with-quotas WAS 
configured in.

The samba share is seen and can be used by authenticated users.  However 
quotas are not being recognized.  The same disk space, if accessed via 
Windows shares are getting their quota recognized.  If accessed via 
Samba, and a user is over quota, the file appears to copy, but is 
actually corrupted.  No quota warning is issued to the user.

Samba:

If you find that everybody else is right and you're wrong,
it might just be that you're thinking outside the box. The
world is yet to catch up.
