The question was:

"We running Tru64 4.0G on several Oracle database servers using ADvFS.
On every file-system there is a quota.group and a quota.user file.
We don't use quota .

When I turn quota of, can I remove these files ? "

-----------------------------------------

The answer is; No, you better cannot remove these files. They are needed by
AdvFS to administer the files etc even when you don't user quota. They are
sparse files, and don't really use the space as identfied in ls.

Regards, and thanks again.
