NAME

       quota_nld - quota netlink message daemon

SYNOPSIS

       quota_nld [[ -D | -C ][ -F ][ -b ]]

DESCRIPTION

       quota_nld  listens  on  netlink  socket  and  processes  received quota
       warnings. By default quota_nld forwards warning messages  to  both  the
       system’s  DBUS  (so  that the desktop manager can display a dialog) and
       the last-accessed  terminal  of  the  user  to  whom  each  warning  is
       directed.  Either of these destinations can be disabled with the -D and
       -C options, respectively.

       In the case of the user’s terminal, quota messages about falling  below
       the  hard  and  soft  limits  are  not  sent  unless  the  -b option is
       specified. In the case of the DBUS, all quota messages are sent.

       Note, that you have to enable the  kernel  support  for  sending  quota
       messages over netlink (in Filesystems->Quota menu).

       -C, --no-console
              Do   not  print  quota  warnings  to  the  user’s  last-accessed
              terminal.

       -b, --print-below
              If quota warnings  are  printed  to  users’  terminals,  include
              messages about falling below their hard and soft limits.
