This is a good way to find out "where" the storage is being used: cd /var ; du -s * | sort -nr | more That will give you a list, sorted from most storage to least, of each directory (or file) at the /var level. You can then choose to descend into one of those, and run the command again, to drill deeper. This is slightly manual, but I find it helpful to stop and think at each level what it is telling me and what it means. -- John Lind [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
