Hi gurus,

I must first thank the following people for their enlightening and quick
replies:
        Alan Davis <Alan.Davis_at_digital.com>
        Magali BERNARD <Magali.Bernard_at_univ-st-etienne.fr>
        Dr PH Ng <ngph_at_isdux1.bham.ac.uk>

In my original post I asked how I could restore user quotas from a backup
copy. The problem arose when I upgraded three old UFS disk to ADVFS. Alan
Davis <Alan.Davis_at_digital.com> from Digital sent my an ideal program
called 'Quota Save and Restore' by Pascal Pederiva (1996). If I get
permission from Alan I will post the source code to the list.

Magali Bernard also directed me to his summary containing another useful
utility:
