        !            49: .I Quotacheck
        !            50: examines each filesystem,
        !            51: builds a table of current disk usage,
        !            52: and compares this table against that recorded
        !            53: in the disk quota file for the filesystem.
        !            54: If any inconsistencies are detected, both the
        !            55: quota file and the current system copy of the
        !            56: incorrect quotas are updated (the latter only
        !            57: occurs if an active filesystem is checked).
        !            58: By default both user and group quotas are checked.
        !            59: The optional \fI-g\fP flag specifies that only group quotas should be checked.
        !            60: The optional \fI-u\fP flag specifies that only user quotas should be checked.
        !            61: Specifying both \fI-g\fP and \fI-u\fP is equivalent to the default.
        !            62: .PP
        !            63: If the
        !            64: .B \-a
        !            65: flag is supplied in place of any filesystem names,
        !            66: .I quotacheck
        !            67: will check all the filesystems indicated in
        !            68: .I /etc/fstab
        !            69: to be read-write with disk quotas.
        !            70: By default only the types of quotas listed in
        !            71: .I /etc/fstab
        !            72: are checked.
        !            73: The optional \fI-g\fP flag specifies that only group quotas listed in
        !            74: .I /etc/fstab
        !            75: should be checked.
        !            76: The optional \fI-u\fP flag specifies that only user quotas listed in
        !            77: .I /etc/fstab
        !            78: should be checked.
        !            79: Specifying both \fI-g\fP and \fI-u\fP is equivalent to the default.
        !            80: Parallel passes are run on the filesystems required,
        !            81: using the pass numbers in
        !            82: .I /etc/fstab
        !            83: in an identical fashion to

        !            90: .B \-v
        !            91: option is supplied,
        !            92: .I quotacheck
        !            93: will report discrepancies between the
        !            94: calculated and recorded disk quotas.
        !            95: .PP
        !            96: .I Quotacheck
        !            97: expects each filesystem to be checked to have a
        !            98: quota files named
        !            99: .I quota.user
        !           100: and
        !           101: .I quota.group
        !           102: which are located at the root of the associated file system.
        !           103: These defaults may be overridden in
        !           104: .I /etc/fstab .
        !           105: If a file is not present, 
        !           106: .I quotacheck
        !           107: will create it.
