RQUOTA(3)

okay so bestie, this is RQUOTA(3), from the Library Functions Manual — yes, we are doing remote quota lore today, and it’s lowkey iconic. 💅✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

rquota — implement quotas on remote machines. periodt. 💖

🦋 PROTOCOL 🦋

The protocol file lives right here, no cap:

/usr/include/rpcsvc/rquota.x

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

The rquota() protocol is the little bestie that inquires about quotas on remote machines. It is used in conjunction with NFS, since NFS itself does not implement quotas. iykyk. 🌈

💻 PROGRAMMING 💻

First thing first, include this:

#include <rpcsvc/rquota.h>

The following XDR routines are available in librpcsvc — collect them, love them, use them:

• xdr_getquota_arg
• xdr_getquota_rslt
• xdr_rquota

• quota(1)
• quotactl(2)

Okay bye! 💖 This was RQUOTA(3), coming from the Library Functions Manual. The page did not give a date, so I’m not inventing one — source/version check done, date check says “not listed,” and that’s the cute sign-off. 🎀✨💅
