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
  Explorer 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

VERSION
  This man page is correct for version 3.0.25 of the Samba suite.

AUTHOR
  The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew
  Tridgell. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open Source
  project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed.
