I look at /usr/var and see directories and no files. When I try to reverse the process with this command, from /usr/var, tar cr - . | ( cd /; tar xf - ) I get lots of errors about file system full. This is on my company web server. What can I do to fix this? -- Chip __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
