Hello, I run a web server on 2.2.7 with Apache 1.3.2, and everything runs beautifully. Over the weekend, though, the root fs ran out of space: it went from 25M (25%) on Friday night to 103M (104%) on Monday morning. Searching for what could've caused this, I found this file: -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 78749696 Oct 10 19:47 v The contents of the file looked like compiled code, but it wasn't executable. What was particularly disturbing was that it was owned by root.... Has anyone run into this at all? Any idea why it could happen? And also, just as a side note, how can a file system take up more than 100% of what it's alotted?
