I m having a hard time to resolve this :

site www.domain.com

user user1 (siteadmin)

When i upload the files to www.domain.com directory ( it is not beeing uploaded into siteadmin's web, but to the right web directory) the quote that is used is the one from siteadmin :

i give for the site 200 mb
siteadmin has 30 mb

and when i upload something to a web folder it takes space from the siteadmin quota, is this supposed to be this way??:confused:

As far as i know the siteadmin "owns" all quota for the site.
So the site's quota is 100MB, the Siteadmin has 100MB available.
When he creates a user with 10 MB and that user fills that space, the siteadmin has 90MB left.
On the other hand when the user only fills his space 50% the Siteadmin had 95MB left.

Sorry if this is not what you ment to ask :)

so when i give a 100 mb to a site it is wholly owned by the siteadmin (which is by default on my raq set to 20 mb) so should i give siteadmin permission to use all 100 mb?

Yes, any files uploaded by a user count against his quota regardless of the directory, so you should give the siteadmin all the space.
