I'm running Debian. I can't seem to properly set up user quotas. I will use "edquota username" and I edit the users file. Then when I run repquota I don't get the edited entries.

my fstab:

<file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
/dev/hdd1 / ext2 errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/hdc1 none swap sw 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/fd0 /floppy auto user,noauto 0 0
/dev/cdrom /cdrom iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/hdd2 /home ext2 defaults,usrquota,grpquota
1 2
/dev/hdd3 /usr ext2 defaults 0 2
/dev/hdc2 /usr/local/apache/htdocs/hdc ext2 defaults 0
2

my repquota results:

Can someone please explain to me (in simple terms) , or point me to a good link that will help me out?

Step 1) First you have to issue:
# quotacheck -c /home ; or whatever partition your trying to make a quota for

Step 2)
# quotacheck -vug /home

Step 3) You should be able to start the service now. "quota"

Step 4) When your editing a users quota, use the -u option

edquota -u username
... then write and quit it

Step 5) Check on the quota report
repquota -a

This is what I get when I enter those commands:

mail:~# quotacheck -c /home
Cannot get exact used space... Results might be inaccurate.

mail:~# quotacheck -vug /home
Cannot get exact used space... Results might be inaccurate.
quotacheck: Scanning /dev/hdd2 [/home] done
quotacheck: Checked 567 directories and 10683 files

repquota -a does not show any changes after I edit the user's quotas.
