Hello all -
Recently, I've been trying to write a utility to edit quotas
(specifically on an ext2 filesystem), using the 2.4.x
kernel. The man page for quotactl() on my system (RH 7.1)
refer to the mem_dqblk struct, which is nowhere to be found
in the source to the 2.4 kernels.
Am I missing something, or should I just continue to use the
dqblk struct.
Thanks in advance for any help -

It depends on version of kernel. In RH 7.1 Alan's kernel is used
and in it is new quota format -> mem_dqblk must be used.
In standard Linus's kernel dqblk should be used.
