Interenal RFE bug #129470 entered; will be considered for future releases. RHEL 4 will have quota 3.10+ RHEL 3 update 4 now has quota 3.10 but this functionality doesn't
work, however the functionality is listed in the documentation for
rquotad:
NAME
rquotad, rpc.rquotad - remote quota server
SYNOPSIS
rpc.rquotad [ -sSFI ] [ -p port ]
...
-p port, --port port
Listen on alternate port port.
A modification of the /etc/init.d/nfs script to add an appropriate
option as suggested by the original poster doesn't work though:
*** /root/nfs 2005-02-04 11:47:51.000000000 +0000
--- nfs 2005-02-04 11:37:35.000000000 +0000
*************** case "$1" in
*** 59,66 ****
fi
if [ -n "$RQUOTAD" -a "$RQUOTAD" != "no" ]; then
echo -n $"Starting NFS quotas: "
! daemon rpc.rquotad
echo
fi
echo -n $"Starting NFS daemon: "
--- 59,69 ----
fi
if [ -n "$RQUOTAD" -a "$RQUOTAD" != "no" ]; then
+ [ -n "$RQUOTAD_PORT" ] \
+ && RQUOTADOPTS="$RQUOTADOPTS -p $RQUOTAD_PORT"
+
echo -n $"Starting NFS quotas: "
! daemon rpc.rquotad $RQUOTADOPTS
echo
fi
echo -n $"Starting NFS daemon: "
This is a defect in RHEL 3 - to ask to upgrade to RHEL 4 (when it
comes out) to fix this is not a suitable fix.
For now we have to open up our firewalls to all ports between these
two hosts - making this a security issue for customers caused by lack
of functionality in a RH tool.
Changed this away from enhancement - to normal defect. This is core functionality to the quota system which is listed as supported in the documentation and thus should be supported. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040626 Firefox/0.9.1 Description of problem: We make extensive use of iptables in our RHE system installs. This presents a problem with RPC based services. Some, such as NFS and rpc.mountd have options to force it to bind to a specific port number -- simplifying our firewalling. The version of quota that ships with RHE (version 3.09) does not support this feature. Versions 3.10 and above do. Would it be possible to update quota to 3.10 or above, and break out RPC_QUOTAD_PORT as an option in /etc/sysconfig/nfs for the /etc/rc.d/init.d/nfs startup script to look for? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): quota-3.09-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. quota on nfs mounted filesystem 2. 3. Actual Results: warthog> quota quota: Error while getting quota from redhat-srvr2:/u1/jasen for 4049: Connection refused Disk quotas for user $USERNAME (uid $UID): none Expected Results: actual quota output.
