NAME
rquotad — remote quota server
DESCRIPTION
rquotad
is an
RPC
server that returns quotas for a user of a local file system
currently mounted by a remote machine by means of
NFS
(see
rpc(3N)).
The results are used by
quota
to display user quotas for remote file systems (see
quota(1)).
rquotad
might not work for local filesystems which support
a 64-bit quota file format. The Q_QUOTAINFO command of the
quotactl()
system call can be used to determine the quota file format supported
by a particular filesystem. (See
quotactl(2)).
rquotad
is normally invoked by
inetd
(see
inetd(1M)).
AUTHOR
