If they're working on the server, the server should then enforce the quota, 
whether the files are accessed directly from the server, or from the client.

Why don't you try to blow through the user's quota, from the client. I 
suspect that you'll run into a brick wall, when the user's quota is used up.

The issue is probably not that the quota doesn't work, but just that the 
client does not report the quota on the server.
