quota ignored on NFS

Hi,

I'm having trouble using disk quota with NFS mounted filesystems.

When the filesystem accessed locally on the server, the quota works fine, i.e. nothing can be written over quota.

However, when the same filesystem is accessed over NFS, an user on the client can write as much as he wants as though the quota system is bypassed somehow.

Both the server and the client are on 2.6.10 (was the same at least with 2.6.[89]). The filesystem is ext2 with v2 quota, both NFSv2 and NFSv3, both tcp and udp (mis)behave the same.

Is that a known problem? Any hints at the solution are appreciated.

Thanks,
Roman.
