DESCRIPTION
       setquota  is a command line quota editor.  The filesystem,
       user/group name and new quotas for this filesystem can  be
       specified on the command line.

       -r     Edit  also  remote  quota use rpc.rquotad on remote
              server to set quota.

       -F quotaformat
              Perform setting for  specified  format  (ie.  don't
              perform  format  autodetection).   Possible  format
              names are: vfsold (version 1 quota), vfsv0 (version
              2  quota),  rpc (quota over NFS), xfs (quota on XFS
              filesystem)

       -u     Set  user  quotas  for  named  user.  This  is  the
              default.

       -g     Set group quotas for named group.

       -p protoname
              Use  quota  settings  of user or group protoname to
              set the quota for the named user or group.

       -t     Set grace times for users/groups. Times block-grace
              and inode-grace are specified in seconds.

       -a     Go  through all filesystems with quota in /etc/mtab
              and perform setting.

       To disable a quota, set the coresponding parameter  to  0.
       To  change quotas for several filesystems, invoke once for
       each filesystem.

       Only the super-user may edit quotas.

       quota.user or quota.group
                           quota  file  at  the  filesystem  root
