This small module provides access to and utilities for disk quotas.
In detail, the quotactl(2) syscall is used to query or set quotas on
the local host, or RPC to send a query to a remote host. A "getdev"
function is provided which uses getmntent(3) to translate paths to the
block device of the according file system.

query(dev[,uid])

setqlim(dev,uid,bs,bh,fs,fh[,tlo])

tlo decides if timelimit is set to "NOT STARTED" (0,default) or
"7.0 days" (1)
sync()

rpcquery(host,path[,uid])
query quotas on a remote host via RPC call.
