+.TH RQUOTAD 8
+.SH NAME
+quota_nld \- quota netlink message daemon
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B quota_nld
+[[
+.B \-D
+|
+.B \-C
+][
+.B \-F
+][
+.B \-b
+]]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.BR quota_nld
+listens on netlink socket and processes received quota
+warnings. By default
+.BR quota_nld
+forwards warning messages to both the system's DBUS (so that the desktop
+manager can display a dialog) and the last-accessed terminal of the user to
+whom each warning is directed. Either of these destinations can be disabled
+with the
+.B \-D
+and
+.B \-C
+options, respectively.
+
+In the case of the user's terminal, quota messages about falling below
+the hard and soft limits are not sent unless the
+.B \-b
+option is specified. In the case of the DBUS, all quota messages are sent.
+
+Note, that you have to enable the kernel support for sending quota
+messages over netlink (in Filesystems->Quota menu).
+
