Subject: 2.0.5-A :  Broken disk quotas, accounting

In the 2.0.5-ALPHA /etc/sysconfig file it says the following:
"
# Set to YES if you wish to check quotas.  NOTE:  For now this probably
# doesn't work and should be left disabled.
check_quotas=NO

# Set to YES to turn on accounting.  NOTE: For now this probably
# doesn't work and should be left disabled.
accounting=NO
"

Is this a "feature" of 2.0.5-_ALPHA_ ?  Can we expect quotas to work in 
2.0.5-Release or at least in 2.1 ?

Another possibility comes to mind:  Quotas and accounting work like they 
always have, but the /etc/sysconfig tie-in hasn't been finished yet.

Any takers?
thanks,
