>From the first paragraph of the quotaon manpage:

 The filesystem quota files must be present  in
       the  root  directory  of  the  specified filesystem and be named 
either
       aquota.user (for version 2 user quota), quota.user (for version 1  
user
       quota),  aquota.group  (for version 2 group quota), or quota.group 
(for
       version 1 group quota).
