<a class="citerefentry" href="samba.7.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">samba</span>(7)</span></a>

suite.</p><p>Many common quota implementations only store

quotas for users and groups, but do not store a default quota. The

<code class="literal">vfs_default_quota</code> module allows Samba to store

default quota values which can be examined using the Windows

Explorer interface.

</p><p>By default, Samba returns NO_LIMIT the default quota and

refuses to update them. <code class="literal">vfs_default_quota</code> maps

the default quota to the quota record of a user. By default the

root user is taken because quota limits for root are typically

not enforced.</p><p>This module is stackable.</p></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en"><a name="id2483336"></a><h2>OPTIONS</h2><div class="variablelist"><dl><dt><span class="term">default_quota:uid = UID</span></dt><dd><p>UID specifies the user ID of the quota record where the
