But /var is not full. It is _more_ than empty. After the system has been running a couple of days (more files in /var/log, /var/db/locate.database, etc.) I now have an almost empty /var: ~#du -sk /var 15378 /var ~#df /var Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/da0s1d 5077038 -21470 4692346 -0% /var I guess I could be happy for this extra diskspace, but I am afraid that something is not quite right... --Ingeborg -- Ingeborg Østrem Hellemo -- ingeborg@cc.uit.no (Univ. of Tromsø, Norway)
