rpc.rquotad − remote quota server
/usr/sbin/rpc.rquotad [ −FI ] [ −p port ] [ −s | −S ] [ −x path ]
/usr/sbin/rpc.rquotad [ −h | −V ]
rpc.rquotad is an rpc(3) server which returns quotas for a user of a local filesystem which is mounted by a remote machine over the NFS . It also allows setting of quotas on NFS mounted filesystem (if configured during compilation and allowed by a command line option −S). The results are used by quota(1) to display user quotas for remote filesystems and by edquota(8) to set quotas on remote filesystems. rquotad daemon uses tcp-wrappers library (under service name rquotad) which allows you to specify hosts allowed/disallowed to use the daemon (see hosts.allow(5) manpage for more information). The rquotad daemon is normally started at boot time from the system startup scripts.
−h, −−help
Show program usage and exit. −V, −−version Show version of quota tools.
−s, −−no-setquota
Don’t allow setting of quotas (default). This option is available only if utilities were compiled with the rpcsetquota option.
−S, −−setquota
Allow setting of quotas. This option is available only if utilities were compiled with the rpcsetquota option.
−F, −−foreground
Run daemon in foreground (may be useful for debugging purposes).
−I, −−autofs
Do not ignore autofs mountpoints.
−p port, −−port port
Listen on alternate port port.
−x path, −−xtab path
Set an alternative file with NFSD export table. This file is used to determine pseudoroot of NFSv4 exports. The pseudoroot is then prepended to each relative path (i.e. a path not beginning by ’/’) received in a quota RPC request.
aquota.user or aquota.group
quota file at the filesystem root (version 2 quota, non-XFS filesystems)
quota.user or quota.group
quota file at the filesystem root (version 1 quota, non-XFS filesystems)
