Samba Quota


I have partationed a 60GB hard drive to 30GB's each. Although I only want to offer around 20GB's on the "NETWORK_SHARE" folder to my Windows boxes through Samba. How would I set a quota for that?

Thanks!

I actually saw this via Google, but I don't believe it mentioned anything spicific to a SAMBA setup...

The folder is virus protected, therefore it is open to all users, becuase of the high level of security I use on my wireless, WPA-PSK. So my question, could it be easily configured for open acces across all users but a global quota to the SAMBA access ONLY?

Thanks...
