My manpage only talks about quota.user (not aquota). I have those. I
turned it on and it failed. I created aquota.user and it still gave the
above error.

I'm using rh6.2 w/ quota-tools that I rolled myself: 2.00. Also, I have
kernle 2.4.18 which I compiled. I explicitely compliled quota into the
kernel. I have an ext3/nfs filessytem. I'm thinking that this might be a
factor.
