Something is amiss here. No quota support, to me, means that it won't
realize it's out of quota, yes. However, seems to me that the OS should
be enforcing this quota regardless of that fact (meaning that Samba
would not show an out of quota message, but something less intelligent,
like permission denied). Anyone else?
