Hello everyone,
I'm having a hard time getting samba 4.6.5 to return the quota to
Windows clients. samba has been compiled with quota-support:
/usr/local/samba/sbin/smbd -b | grep 'QUOTA'
HAVE_SYS_QUOTAS
HAVE_SYS_QUOTA_H
HAVE_RPCSVC_RQUOTA_H
HAVE_GETQUOTA_RSLT_GETQUOTA_RSLT_U
HAVE_NFS_QUOTAS
HAVE_QUOTACTL_LINUX
WITH_QUOTAS
However the client shows the size of the underlying filesystem, not the
free space according to quota. The filesystem is ext4.
I have a script which worked under samba 3.6 and 4.2 as "get quota
command" but can't work under 4.6.5 because this one only asks for a
strange combination of type and uid/gidnumber: It combines the
user/group quota type (1 and 3) with uid/gidnumbers of -1 which is not
helpful since there is obviously no way to figure out the quota for user
X without knowing who user X is... Is this a bug or a feature that I
just don't understand ?
get_quota: Running command /usr/local/bin/getsambaquota.pl . 1 -1
get_quota: Running command /usr/local/bin/getsambaquota.pl . 3 -1
Regards,
Stephan
