It tried the latter on another server and the filesystem was accessible at all time but other problems occured (maybe not quota-related) that made my co-admins downgrade to 2.6.9: 1. suddenly, after running the patched kernel for days, su, sudo and authentication through courier webmailer was not possible, ssh-root-login went fine. After reboot problem was gone but pam_rootok.so was missing (file system curruption?) 2. after a few hours stress-testing the quota-partition: kernel crash: code ff 21 e2 8b 0a ... ... 76 60 e0 ff 6a 00 kernel BUG at lib/kernel_lock:120! invalid operand: 0000 Do you think they are quota-related or related to you quota-fixall patch? Is your fix appliable for vanilla 2.6.10 or is it already integrated or is there a newer patch? -- klaus thorn klaus@trillke.net
