    You can use Webmin

    https://host:10000/quota/list_users.cgi?dir=%2Fserver%2Ftrab&can=1
          Filesystem Quotas

    --------------------------------------------------------------------
                Too many users have quotas on /server/trab to display on one page
                                    

    --------------------------------------------------------------------
                Webmin can be configured to automatically set the quotas on this filesystem when a new Unix user is created. This will only work when the Users and Groups Webmin module is used to add users.
                 New User Quotas
                            Soft Block Limit Unlimited
                            Hard Block Limit Unlimited
                     Soft File Limit Unlimited
                            Hard File Limit Unlimited
