1. Can you please update the "quota" package in portage to 3.08? From this release on rquotad is aware of /etc/services which makes live with NFS and firewalls more easy (meaning you can set the port rquotad will use with /etc/services instead of RPC setting it dynamically). A description about this can be found at: http://www.lowth.com/LinWiz/nfs_help.html 2. The comment in /etc/conf.d/nfs ("nfs-utils" ebuild) says: # OPTIONS to pass to rpc.rquotad # ex. RPCRQUOTADOPTS="-p 32764" RPCRQUOTADOPTS="" The options here are used in /etc/init.d/nfs to start rquotad. This daemon has no option "-p" so the comment is not correct. Which port it is using can be controlled by /etc/services. See as mentioned above.
