more on the strange quota error....this is in BSD, with quotas referenced on an NFS, and users provided by YP/NIS

quotactl(Q_GETQUOTA, /.amd_mnt/crock/vol/v_user1/jdoe) failed: Operation not supported

this looks strange to me, as the specification for quotactl states the function Q_GETQUOTA:

 Q_GETQUOTA    Get disk quota limits and current usage for the user or
               group (as determined by the command type) with identifier
               id.  The addr argument is a pointer to a struct dqblk
               structure (defined in <ufs/ufs/quota.h>).

this directory path is not a valid UID...rather, its my user home directory path!

For us (whith FreeBSD 6.x and 7.0), this (quota over NFS) only works since 1.1. I had the same error with dovecot-1.0x.

With 1.1, we still need:

• rquotad in /etc/inetd.conf in both server and client (and of cource inetd_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf ;) to check this, "# rpcinfo -p server | grep rquota"
• quota enable on this filesystem...

I think there was a patch somewhere to enable this on 1.0x too... check the archives.
