Sorry for that, but I didn't follow the list for a while.
You might propably have already done the right thing:
Changing the default value in g_quota (Disk quota for users
in specified g_access_group) will do the trick. And that's
the way we do it.

There are no default values to be searched in NWAuth
database. Instead go the
Reports page and use 'Summary report based on current user
database',
'Quota usage report-by account', sorted by 'Quota limit'.

No, if you have only set default quotas, they will not show
up in NWAauth, no default values will. This has been
discussed on this list a while ago.
But as soon as you set individual quotas through the
Account
details page, they will written to the database.
Hope this helps.
