Install and activate quota on Linux

/in , , , , , , , , /by

Install the quota tools on your server.(debian – ubuntu)

sudo apt install quota

Edit your fstab file under etc folder:

/dev/sda1 / ext4 usrquota,grpquota 0 0

and remount it to take effect immediately:

sudo mount -o remount / (or whereever you want to enable)

Enable quota.This command will create two files on file system like /aquota.user and /aquota.group :

sudo quotacheck -ugm /

Activate the quota

sudo quotaon -v /

 

 

 

Mount remote ftp to your server

/in , , , , , , , , /by

If you use debian or ubuntu,you should install the package first.

apt-get install curlftpfs

After the installation,create a folder where will you mount to.for example /mnt/rftp

sudo mkdir /mnt/rftp

curlftp’s format and its parameters are simple.for example,we have an ftp account like olriss and password: 123x4P at 192.168.1.199

in local server,mount remote ftp with using this command

curlftpfs olriss:123x4P@192.168.1.199 /mnt/rftp/

curlftps is similar to nfs tools so you can review the mounted ftp area in your mounted drive list.so check it with “mount -a” command.

after your work is finished,you can unmount it with similar way as nfs unmounting.You won’t need all parameters to unmount,You just unmount the folder like below,

umount /mnt/rftp
