Space used by files that are opened by one program and then deleted by another program is not freed up until that second program closes the file. So you may have to kill some daemons. Try to do a 'du -x /' just to make sure that you don't have much stuff on your / partition. You should move /tmp over to /usr/tmp and symlink it back. --Ludwig Pummer <ludwigp@bigfoot.com> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
