RQUOTAD(8) System Manager's Manual RQUOTAD(8)
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)
/etc/mtab
default filesystems
quota(1), rpc(3), nfs(5), services(5), inetd(8)
