I would like to allocate 200Mb of disk space per users's home folders. How do I go about doing this, I looked at disk quota and it seems to be for volumes and not on a folder level. Any advice would be great.. Thanks!

Quotas are set up per user but is on the entire disk or volume. The best way... make sure your HD that you want to store your users folders on is set to Dynamic. Create a volume large enough to contain all your users. Then set quotas/user. If they were in groups, it makes the task much easier. Only put the users home folders on that volume. If there are more folders that users use on that volume, The total uncrompessed space is the quota for the user.
