RE: [cobalt-users] Uploading Help

["Nick Ciantro" <nc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Actually.  I have to upload as the server admin, because I am uplaoding one
of the update patches into the packages directory.  Why would the server
administrator have a disk quota.  And how can I change it?

If you are uploading the file as an admin user of a virtual, your user disk
space has to be set equal to the disk space on the virtual.. for instance,
if the site has 100 megs and your administrative user is only set to the
default of 50.. when you reach 50 it hangs... Strange behavior and one I
only noticed recently when I began doing the smart thing and administering
the virtual's as admin user NOT server admin... less exposure for root
password.. not perfect but we're working on that
