Initially, users of all types can log in to only one computer at a time. No other settings are
selected.

Limiting a User’s Disk Storage Space
A disk space quota limits the amount of storage space available in a user’s home directory.
Once a user exceeds the storage limit, he or she cannot save any more files there. Users see a
warning message if they run out of storage space.
To set a user storage quota:
1 In Macintosh Manager, click Users, and then click Advanced.
2 Select a user in the Imported Users list.
3 Select “Set user storage quota to __ K” and type in the maximum amount of storage space to
allow in kilobytes (1024 kilobytes = 1 megabyte).
When you set a storage quota, keep in mind the amount of space available and the number
of users who will share it.
4 To allow a user to save files even if he or she exceeds the set quota, select “Only warn user if
they exceed this limit.”
5 Click Save.
Updating User Information From Mac OS X Server
If you change user information in Workgroup Manager or delete user accounts, you need to
synchronize Macintosh Manager with the Mac OS X Server database to make sure user data is
the same in both places.
To update Macintosh Manager user data:
1 In Macintosh Manager, click Users.
2 Choose Verify Users & Workgroups from the File menu.
If the user account exists in the server database, Macintosh Manager updates the user’s
information to match information in the server database. For very large numbers of users,
this process can take some time.
Note: If the user account can’t be found, the user is deleted from Macintosh Manager.
