my fstab file looks nothing like the one you described, it is as follows

LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 11
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 12
None /dev/pts devpts
LABEL=/home /home ext3 defaults 00
None /proc proc 00
None /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 00
LABEL=/usr /usr ext3 defaults 12
LABEL=/var /var ext3 defaults 12
/dev/hda7 swap swap defaults 00

what now, what should i change ?
thanx

It is just becluse you are using label values not device names - just add the last line that I posted with the correct drive name and mount point.

It means just that.

Add a blank line to the end of the file.

You can't do it through samba but you can set it on the filesystem - take a look at this howto:

too complicated, isn't there a command i can put in the smb.conf file that will enable/control quotas ?

thanx (by now that's gotta be a cliche)

Not as far as I know. You can see all options available for smb.conf by running:
man smb.conf
