I tried to install quotas on my system, following the instructions straight from the FreeBSD documentation web pages. Everything seemed to go smooth: 1. compiled and installed the new kernel with the quotas option 2. edited /etc/fstab to put userquota option on two file systems 3. created an empty quota.user file in the root of both file systems 4. rebooted 5. ran edquota on a test user 6. ran repquota -a and everything was working

Try enabling quotas in /etc/sysconfig, do NOT create an empty quota.user file. Reboot and let the stuff in /etc/rc establish your quota.user files. Then run edquota to setup quotas for your users. I think that might solve your problem.
