[-- Attachment #1 --] Dear sirs and ms, I ran into a problem with my system that I just can't find any doncumentation about. Either that or I'm looking in all the wrong places. Maybe you can point me in the right direction. This error message keeps popping up over and over, takeing over my system so I can't even type a command. sep 22: 13:47::07 sendmail[312]: NOQUE: low on space (have 0 SMPT-DAEMON needs 101 in /var/spool/mqueue this messege repeats over and over along with this one: sep 22:13:47:07 /kernal: pid 3318 (mgetty), uid 0 on /var: file system full si I did this, trying to regain control of my system: kill 3281 !! pid 3281 not found then the ereor changes to this: sep 22: 14:16:51 /kernal: pid 192 (dhclient) uid 0 on /var: file system full I have a 13 gig hard drive and it surely isn't full. Have I created the /var slice too small? It's at 40 Mb now, that's the auto configuration and thats what I used at install. No other operating systems on this box. It's an i386 running 3.3 lite. I was running it as a dhcp client because I have high speed internet access through the cable company. But I didn't even have a browser or mail set up yet. I've had to reinstall. Dhcp was working fine as I could ping out with no problems. As I write this I'm doing the reinstall so maybe alittle "magic" will fix this problem, but I would sure like to know just what the heck happened. Any help you can give is greatly appreciated. thanks Mike [-- Attachment #2 --] <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD W3 HTML//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <META content=text/html;charset=iso-8859-1 http-equiv=Content-Type> <META content='"MSHTML 4.72.3110.7"' name=GENERATOR> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT size=2>Dear sirs and ms,</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT size=2> I ran into a problem with my system that I just can't find any doncumentation about.
