Quota Monitor Menu (Mobile)

By Zack Smith posted on July 12th, 2007

After seeing this post on afp548.com I decided to take the time to dive into a little cocoa as I have been trying to learn it recently. For anyone interested , I have modified the source code to display the size of /Volumes/<logname> so you can have the menu display a home directory perhaps mounted by MCX, loginhook, location file,alias etc. Basically meaning if you have a (Portable | Mobile) account you can see the quota information (free space) of the mounted share,instead of the local home folder’s file system.

note: different name so modify the hook accordingly

I also made one that uses the OriginalHomeDirectory attribute but it would only work for people using a non-guest pure kerberos automount setup. if you would like it instead feel free to contact me
