Yet Another Way To Cheat Quotas
Background: Crond keeps the users crontabs under /var/spool/cron/crontabs.
They are owned by root. Dont ask me way but I recall it has something to
do with some security issue. Anyway...
crontab bighuge.tgz
rm bighuge.tgz
to recover:
crontab -l > bighuge.tgz
the crond man page sees it will onlie accept files with lines not longer
then 1024 and no more then 256 lines. This gives you around 256K.
