I don't know what happened to the body of my last message, but I will try again. Louis McDonald asks about a disk quota system for the Apollos. The only one I've seen in Christa Decker's "Guerrilla Approach for Disk Space Limitation" (or some very similar title). It should appear in the ADUS Free Software Library. It actually fails to prohibit excessive usage of the disk, but if a quota is exceeded overnight, the user is restricted to deletion rights until he or she gets back under quota. It is a fantastic kludge, but bizarre enough that Christa was able to use it in a teaching & research lab at Bucknell for several years. -Chris Christopher E.
