Hi
	I am currently looking for a quota enforcer for a NeXT cluster.  The unsupported application that comes with the NeXT has never worked for me and
as I keep adding new users the problem keeps getting worse.  So if anyone out there has any information on a quota enforcer or something similar, a reply  would
be most appreciated, infact any reply is most appreciated in advance.

In 2.0, quota was broken on the NeXT. For 3.0, they have fixed it in a
uniquely NeXT-like way...they are removing it, and will not support it.
This is extremely frustrating to sysadmins..if you don't like it, write 
NeXT and tell them!

Look for Quotas.tar.Z
	It's a clever system that runs quot on each file system each night,  
compares the quantity to a table in netinfo, and keeps track of how much over  
quota people are.  If you have been over quota for more than 7 of the last 10  
days, your account is disabled.
