This is strange.  When I do:

[11:49:09 root@fat_man: /var]# du -sh
7.0M    .



but when I do:



[11:49:18 root@fat_man: /var]# df -h
Filesystem    Size   Used  Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/ad0s1a    97M    55M    34M    62%    /
/dev/ad0s1f   1.7G   1.2G   403M    75%    /usr
/dev/ad0s1e    19M   8.6M   9.2M    48%    /var
procfs        4.0K   4.0K     0B   100%    /proc


Where are the extra 1.6 megs at?

I thought there must be a stray process running that had a lock on that 
amount of memory, but I couldn't find anything with top or via ps -aux.  I 
use tripwire everynight to check file consistencies and I believe it's the 
problem, I can't figure out how or why.  Rebooting the server fixes the 
problem and clears up the missing memory. ???

Please reply to mike@ascendency.net which is the address I am subscribed 
with, but since my isp hasn't corrected my reverse dns problem yet, I can't 
post from that address to *@freebsd.org.  Thanks!
