The way I understand it, that group can use a total of 50MB and each user
would take a chunk of that.  You probably need to set this per user.  Where
are you setting the quotas?  Is it Windows NT 4 or 2000, or Linux?  I don't
believe you specified, but you were talking about "new Windows admins" in a
previous post.
