The Situation: You have a Mac OS X Server with network home directories and disk 
quotas enabled.

The Problem: The Mac OS Finder on client machines does not have very good 
support for warning users they are approaching their file quota limit. They end 
up all of sudden unable to save files with little or no explanation as to why.

The Solution: QuotaMonitorMenu places the user’s home folder quota status 
right in the menu bar. It will also pop up warnings at regular intervals. All 
warnings and text are customizable.
