I am currently writing the documentation for a new lustre system,  
which will use quota's. We to are using Debian Etch 64bit, 2.6.22.19- 
lustre-1.6.6

Is the correct way to change quota's to use lfs setquota even though  
the manual version "Lustre 1.6 Operations Manual • September 2008 "  
explicitly says not to do this ?
