Try a mount -uo sync /whatever and see if that will put it right. Does df report free capacity after you delete the tmp file? I suggest you move your /var file system to /usr/var: You can keep things compatible by using a symlink "ln -s /usr/var /var" after moving /var to /usr/var. c u Jo > > >Thanks , Vasily . > > ******[FreeBSD it is coolest UNIX for PC!]******* > * System admin , ftp and web master. * > * Home Page: http://www.econ.acnit.ac.ru/ * > * * > * Industrial Economy Departament * > * Voronezh State Technical University * > * * > ************************************************* ----------------------------------------------------------------------- For a world of pedigree OSs FreeBSD - top breeders recommend it Joachim Kuebart Tel: +49 711 653706 Germany
