+.B rpc.rquotad
+is an
+.BR rpc (3)
+server which returns quotas for a user of a local filesystem
+which is mounted by a remote machine over the
+.SM NFS\s0.
+It also allows setting of quotas on
+.SM NFS
+mounted filesystem (if configured during compilation and allowed by a command line option
+.BR \-S ).
+The results are used by
+.BR quota (1)
+to display user quotas for remote filesystems and by
+.BR edquota (8)
+to set quotas on remote filesystems.
+.B rquotad
+daemon uses tcp-wrappers library (under service name
+.IR rquotad )
+which allows you to specify hosts allowed/disallowed to use
+the daemon (see
+.BR hosts.allow (5)
+manpage for more information). The
+.B rquotad
+daemon is normally started at boot time from the
+system startup scripts.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP
+.B \-h, \-\-help
+Show program usage and exit.
+.B \-V, \-\-version
+Show version of quota tools.
+.TP
+.B \-s, \-\-no-setquota
+Don't allow setting of quotas (default). This option is available only
+if utilities were compiled with the
+.I rpcsetquota
+option.
+.TP
+.B \-S, \-\-setquota
+Allow setting of quotas. This option is available only
+if utilities were compiled with the
+.I rpcsetquota
+option.
+.TP
+.B \-F, \-\-foreground
+Run daemon in foreground (may be useful for debugging purposes).
+.TP
+.B \-I, \-\-autofs
+Do not ignore autofs mountpoints.
+.TP
+.B \-p \f2port\f3, \-\-port \f2port\f1
+Listen on alternate port
+.IR port.
+.TP
+.B \-x \f2path\f3, \-\-xtab \f2path\f1
+Set an alternative file with NFSD export table. This file is used to
+determine pseudoroot of NFSv4 exports. The pseudoroot is then prepended
+to each relative path (i.e. a path not beginning by '/') received in a
+quota RPC request.
