Re: [CentOS] Suggestion on Share folder

From: Fajar Priyanto fajarpri@arinet.org

I need some advise on how best manage a share folder. We have a 2TB samba share. Inside there is individual user sub-folder, and also there are team's folders. We use one shared account for all users. The problem is: The user abuse the space usage. My thought:

• Implement quota for each user.
• But the implication is each user must have their own account and

this potentially gives additional hassle when someone forgets the password.

If you don't want to go the several accounts way, you could either: - Tell your users not to abuse. - Maybe (not sure if possible), if each user has its own IP, parse samba logs to see who used how much.
