DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     rpc.rquotad is an rpc(3) server which returns quotas  for  a

  filesystem  which is NFS-mounted onto a remote machine.
quota(1) uses
     the results to display user quotas for  remote  filesystems.
rpc.rquotad
     is normally invoked by inetd(8).

     rpc.rquotad    uses    an    RPC    protocol    defined   in
