Hello just had a few questions so I can start some C++ programming on linux.

1. Is limiting the size of a user account part of apache or is it the linux os limiting the size of the user's directory? I.E. when you set a limit on a user's account through a control panel of any type is the function that sets this limit part of apache or linux?

2. Ah... I guess I had only one question.

I'll came back with more! Thanks.

Hi!
If the limit is set using quotas then the blocks used by the user is counted. If du is used for summation of home + mail+ mysql etc....
Remember, du -H is an estimate and quota actually counts the number of nodes used.

Have a great day :)
