Bug Description
Binary package hint: quota
Hi Everybody!
I have a feisty 7.04 (2.6.20-16-server kernel) installation where the home-directories are imported by the automounter over nfs from our server user information is pulled via ldap from the same server. Quota displays the actual quotas correctly. However, only the first entry in /etc/mtab is shown. This leads to a situation where correct output is only generated if only one user is logged in.
In my setup the error is not very severe since the /home quotas on the server are defined for the whole /home volume (and not for each user separately), so user2 will see this output:
Disk quotas for user user2 (uid 1002):
Filesystem blocks quota limit grace files quota limit grace
server:/home/user1
...which is the correct quota for user2 but it is slightly misleading for my users as not their own home directory is mentioned in the output but only the directory of the fist user who logged into the machine (and hence created the first entry in /etc/mtab). In my two user example I would expect this output:
Disk quotas for user user2 (uid 1002):
Filesystem blocks quota limit grace files quota limit grace
server:/home/user1
server:/home/user2
quota -v gives exactly the same result.
Cheers,
Matthias
