VFS_DEFAULT_QUOTA(8)	   System Administration tools	    VFS_DEFAULT_QUOTA(8)

NAME
     vfs_default_quota - store default quota records for Windows clients

SYNOPSIS
     vfs objects = default_quota

DESCRIPTION
     This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.

     Many  common  quota implementations only store quotas for users and groups,
     but do not store a default quota. The vfs_default_quota module allows Samba
     to store default quota values which can be examined using the  Windows  Ex-
     plorer interface.

     By  default, Samba returns NO_LIMIT the default quota and refuses to update
     them.  vfs_default_quota maps the default quota to the quota  record  of  a
     user.  By	default the root user is taken because quota limits for root are
     typically not enforced.

     This module is stackable.

OPTIONS
     default_quota:uid = UID
	 UID specifies the user ID of the quota record where  the  default  user
	 quota values are stored.

     default_quota:gid = GID
	 GID  specifies the group ID of the quota record where the default group
	 quota values are stored.

     default_quota:uid nolimit = BOOL
	 If this parameter is True, then the user whose quota record is  storing
	 the  default user quota will be reported as having a quota of NO_LIMIT.
	 Otherwise, the stored values will be reported.

     default_quota:gid nolimit = BOOL
	 If this parameter is True, then the group whose quota record is storing
	 the default group quota will be reported as having a quota of NO_LIMIT.
	 Otherwise, the stored values will be reported.

EXAMPLES
     Store the default quota record in the quota record for  the  user	with  ID
     65535 and report that user as having no quota limits:

		 [global]
	      vfs objects = default_quota
	      default_quota:uid = 65535
	      default_quota:uid nolimit = yes
