Samba has quota support? Good luck with that. Quotas are generally a file system thing, enforced on system users. In my experience they cause more problems then they solve.

Really? What's your hate list with quotas?
I think bounding users file system usage is rather desirable. It'd seem slightly odd *not* to use them...

AFAIK Samba doesn't directly support quotas..you CAN however setup quotas using the linux Filesystem quota manager. I'm a wimp and use webmin most times for that..:) of course i do NOT have that exposed externally(that's what vpn's are for..<G.)

# repquota -a (snip) user -- 40 0 0 7 0 0 (snip) W2K8AD1\administrator -- 124 0 0 28 0 0 W2K8AD1\samba -- 4 0 10 1 0 0
It seems possible with winbind.

What you're seeing there is that those users have written something to the filesystem. repquota then reports on quota status, and converts uids to names. It's only at that last stage that winbind would get involved. Indeed, you can get to that state without winbind even running using nss_ldap.
It's the actual filesystem quota support that you're using here, nothing else.
