    Upon creation of a new account, the Space Used display indicates 158MB used, despite it being a brand-new account, new directories, and less than 200KB of data in the directory structure.

    /scripts/fixquotas does not resolve the problem.

    Has anyone run into this before? If so, could you let me know how you fixed it?

    Thanks,
    -Adam

    find /usr /home /var /tmp -user USERNAME -print

    That command will display all files owned by USERNAME. Obviously replace USERNAME with the username you are having quota issues with.

    That did it - there were a bunch of files erroneously owned to the user in question. chowning them properly fixed the problem.

    Thanks! :)
