Quotas on Sun 3 running 4.0.1

[Dieter Muller]

A while ago I sent a request off to Sun-Spots about:
> [...] noticing serious discrepancies between actual disk usage and
> what quota reports for some users.

I got one reply which boiled down to ``yes, there's a problem, but we
don't know what causes it'' from another user (not from Sun).

What seems to make it go away is ripping out the default ``quotaon -a''
from /etc/rc and replacing it with ``quotaon -v /home'', etc, one for each
partition.

Strange, but true.
