Mysterious quota poltergeist

[GreenGecko]

It doesn't work to set it to no quotas. The numbers get reset anyway. That
was how we had it set up originally. Attempts to set the quota to someething
high was what we were trying as an altenative to no quotas because it gave
us something to try.  No matter the setting we give it, it keeps reseting
itself to this bizarre number and throwing the quota errors.  Even with the
quota files locked it still would report this bogus number. Now we have it
in the database still with no joy.

Thanks for your time,
