Topic awaiting preservation: Hosting limit web space? (Page 1 of 1)

I have a server. And I have given some webspace to people. I have given them a folder but there is no limit to how much stuff they can put in the folder. Does anybody know how to put a file size limit on a folder or directory? Perhaps an FTP program that moniters the size of the account?

Thanks

Is this for Linux or windows?

Check out linuxquota at sourceforge.

Windows also has quota's but only on NTFS and on a per volume (drive) basis there are third party tools for this however.


Anyway if you google disk quota etc, quota is the keyword you're looking for

ITs a windows System with NTFS.

If it's a Windows 2000 server, enable quotas on the drive.

F1 is your friend.

ITs windows XP. How do I enable quotas?

hmm dunno for XP but usually it's just a matter of right clicking on the drive and selecting the quotas tab

yes but that doesn't set folder amount for a person logging on through FTP

so what ftp are you using? Read its manual?

unfortunately nothing is there.
