It seems to me that quotas, if any, would need to be enabled or implemented 
on the server, and not the client. This client has no clue, of course, if 
any other client is mounting the same export on the server. Some other 
client may very well be creating files, using the same userid, which impacts 
the user's quota.

Therefore, logically, if there's something that needs to be done to 
implement quotas, you'll want to look on the server, not the cient.
