Dear Experts,

After searching the web, reading FreeBSD Docs, trying some hacks found on
some discussion boards... I feel it is not easily possible. Yet, as always
there may be some expert who knows how to do it:

How can one have per user quotas inside jail?

Basically, I would like to give users shell access to some server, but
that I prefer to have in jail, where I will mount all filesystems they
need access to... and the only question is: how do I restrict them so one
(or few) user doesn't fill up the whole filesystem. My mind is not married
to any particular filesystem, UFS2, XFS, ZFS... - the only thing I would
stay away from is NFS exporting on host and then NFS mounting in jail
(which may be easiest if not the only way quota wise).

Thanks.
Valeri
