Anyway, check if you have accounting_enable="YES" on /etc/rc.conf, and whether it might actually be /var which is full. Recently something very strange happened to me: accounting_enable="YES" somehow got into my /etc/rc.conf file and it ended up filling my /var filesystem which happens to be a condition just as serious as filling up /. Although this happened to me already two weeks ago, I take the occasion to ask the list: - Does anyone know of any reason, such as a port installation or a make installworld, that justifies that accounting_enable="YES" misteriously appeared on my /etc/rc.conf ? I know I didn't do it... I hate to admit I let it happen... and I have been blaming myself for having forgotten to disable password authentication on ssh to this machine... but maybe something else is to blame.
