What is the best way to limit the max quota a reseller can assign to any one account? Obviously I am not talking about their global quota limit.

I want to prevent a Reseller from using their reseller plan to create a single account that maxes out their allotted disk space and bandwidth. I'd like to set a per account size restriction of like 10 or 15gigs.

Do i just need to create a cron script that runs and modifies the quota of any package that doesn't start with "_" and if the quota is over 10000, set it to 10000? Using the API will result in changing all associated account quotas, so that would work but I wonder if there is a better way.

Hello :)

There are no native features to limit the quota that a reseller can set for accounts beyond the global quota limit. Aside from the workaround you referenced, you can also submit a feature request for this functionality via:

Thank you.

How about "Specify which packages RESELLERUSERNAME can use for account creation."
in WHM -> Resellers -> Edit Reseller Nameservers and Privileges ?
