We have a Sun4/280 (Sunos4.0) gateway file server, who's serves 11 Sun3
discless clients. I use quotation for one filesystem (home/`server').
(/dev/xy0h             533461  240375  239739    50%    /home/duttnph)

After booting our server, I noticed the following:
- De file system quota consistency checker (quotacheck) does'nt work. 
- quota is not turned on (quotaon).

>From the manual I read:
quotacheck  is  normally  run  at   boot   time   from   the
     /etc/rc.local  file,  see rc(8), before enabling disk quotas
     with quotaon(8).

However, not in the /etc/rc.local file, but in the /etc/rc file I find
the following about quota:
mount -at 4.2                       >/dev/console 2>&1
                (echo -n 'checking quotas: ') >/dev/console
quotacheck -a -p                    >/dev/console 2>&1
                (echo 'done.')      >/dev/console
quotaon -a

Of course, on the file system root (/home/duttnph) there is a quotas file
edited with edquota.

Because the quota does'nt work for that particular file system, after booting,
I do manual on the server, via tty/pty:
- quotacheck -v /home/duttnph 
- quotaon -v /home/duttnph
Then finally, the quota for the filesystem (home/`server' works.

more /etc/mtab

dutrun:/var/spool/news /var/spool/news nfs ro,soft 0 0
dutrun:/usr/lib/news /usr/lib/news/dutrun nfs ro,soft 0 0

Is there any body who knows why quotacheck and quotaon does'nt work after
the server is booted ???
