I'm checking disk usage with the du command.  I'm getting the following
output:

117 Blacksheep# du -hc /etc
 97K    /etc/defaults
 32K    /etc/periodic/daily
 11K    /etc/periodic/weekly
3.0K    /etc/periodic/monthly
 47K    /etc/periodic
4.0K    /etc/ssh
9.0K    /etc/ssl
2.0K    /etc/gnats
 34K    /etc/isdn
1.0K    /etc/kerberosIV
148K    /etc/mail
 44K    /etc/mtree
10.0K   /etc/namedb
5.0K    /etc/ppp
1.0K    /etc/skel
 17K    /etc/uucp
 12M    /etc
 12M    total

If I add up the numbers, I only get a total of 462K, not 12M as indicated.
What am I missing?

Thanks,

Drew
