    Thanks to Bill & Jeff,

    There is no way to restrict the space consumed by a NFS exported
    directory so I am going to create one filesystem per directory and
    export it.

    Regards
    Sridhar.

    here is the reply from Bill.

    There is nothing in filesystem quotas related to NFS, only users can be
    controlled. You'll have to create all the NFS filesystems and export
    them. Be sure you have sized your NFS daemons appropriately for best
    performance.

Subject: directory size limit...
Hi All,
We have a NFS server in our network which exports directories to all
clients. All the exported directories are in single filesystem on the
NFS server.
Can I limit the size of the each exported directory to certain size at
the server or at the client. The limit should not be based on the user
instead it should be based on the client to which it is exported.
I can create multiple filesystems and export to solve this but there are
around 150 directories  that should be exported.
Thanks In advance 
Sridhar
