How can I stop my users from using their space as a warez repository

The above fragment will control anonymous users however if a local user with a full account with up and download capability is abusing their space then the technical measures which can be taken are limited. Applying a sane system quota is a good start, using the mod_quotatab and mod_ratio modules may control the rates of upload/download making it less useful as a warez repository. In the end it comes down to system monitoring and good site AUP's and enforcement.
