Description Keiichi Mori 2001-04-03 11:35:06 UTC
A NFS client mounts a file system that is setted disk quota on NFS Server.
I execute "quota -v" command on the client, but it does not
display that disk usage and limits.

Comment 1 Preston Brown 2001-04-03 16:10:58 UTC
RPC quota support was enabled in quota-3.00-4 and later.

Comment 2 Preston Brown 2001-04-03 16:11:20 UTC
please reopen the bug if you are already using that version.

Comment 3 Keiichi Mori 2001-04-04 01:43:49 UTC
I am using quota-3.00-4, but this problem occurs.


Comment 4 Luca Bonomi 2001-05-02 12:35:04 UTC
I had the same problem with a RH 7.0 nfs server and different client versions.
The server is running quota-2.00pre3-7.
On the server, I changed the line referring to the exported filesystem in
/etc/fstab using /dev/hdc1 insetead of the new form /LABEL=/home and the quota
was reported correctly on the clients.

Comment 7 Keiichi Mori 2001-06-04 01:44:38 UTC
I created two patches for this problems on quota-3.00-4(please see attachments).
I tested them on RedHat Linux7.1 client and server.

Would you try to test these patches?

Comment 10 Need Real Name 2002-05-30 01:56:26 UTC
I believe I've encountered this exact problem even with the available 
patches.  Rather than opening a new bug, is it possible to reopen this one?

Let me first describe my setup:  I run a lab with several alpha machines 
running RedHat 7.1.  Each has several nfs mounts from a FreeBSD box.  The 
quota command reports "none" on each of these machines.  A Tru64 box mounting 
the same nfs volumes reports the correct quotas, so the nfs server is 
correctly functioning.  Perhaps there is an incompatability with nfs on Linux 
and FreeBSD.

I've tried mounting the nfs volumes with every imaginable option(hard, soft, 
udp, tcp, nfsvers=2 & 3, etc...).  To no avail, have tried several kernels, 
quota-tools, and updated the nfs programs on the linux machines.  
Specifically, 2.4.19-pre8 (both smp and non-smp) and the stock RH7.1 2.4.9 
(both smp and non-smp) do not work with the latest redhat patches(quota 
reports "none").  There are no errors, except on 2.4.18-pre8(from kernel.org) 
with quota-tools 3.05, which reports "Error while getting quota from /{IP 
Omitted}:/{nfs mount} for {user}: Connection refused".  In any case, quota-
3.01pre9-0.7.1 does not function on 2.4.9, as it *should*.  I can provide 
strace data if needed, but I do not want to post it on the 'net abroad.

Thanks, Jacob Joseph(jmjoseph.edu)

Comment 11 Andreas Metzler 2002-09-23 09:49:26 UTC
I cannot reproduce this with RedHat 7.3 anymore.

Comment 12 Pete Zaitcev 2002-10-09 00:03:58 UTC
*** Bug 22066 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Comment 13 Need Real Name 2002-10-15 00:39:38 UTC
Okay, I think everyone needs to reread my post again.  I'm running Redhat 7.1 on
alpha machines, not intel boxes.  Redhat 7.3 is not even available for the alpha
platform, so it surely is not a solution.  Bug 22066 discusses only i686
machines. Would it be possible for anyone to test this on an alpha?  Redhat?

Thanks, Jacob Joseph(jmjoseph.edu)

Time to close this bug?

Red Hat Linux is no longer supported by Red Hat, Inc. If you are still
