Hi All

Thanks for your reply. As I freed up some space by moving /sbin /bin to
another
parition, which gave me 3MB, today I see, that the / parition overruns 107%
again.

I just can't figure out, who that is, why it happens.

What I also see is:

Mar 26 06:12:43 caramba /kernel: pid 46469 (sweep), uid 85 on /: file system
full
Mar 26 06:21:16 caramba /kernel: pid 47054 (sweep), uid 85 on /: file system
full

sweep is the av scanner for qmail (user id 85). Strangely, the av scanner
does not
sit on /, rather /usr/

An "du -s /" doesn't seem to work either; but a "du /" works.

So it shows, that something over night or a regular process is filling /,
because
I cleared 3 MB yesterday as mentioned above and now again it is full.

I am running the du / pipeing it into a file (on another partition of
course) and
will sort it quickly. Maybe this gives a clue too.

Any help in solving that very appreciated.


Thanks,
arie
