Adam, I think you got a really good guess. :) Especially as the log-files listed by lsof have status "deleted": ** apache2 5288 root 9w REG 8,44 57327591 204998 /var/log/apache2/access_log-20110204 (deleted) ** Interesting things happen when a file is deleted while a process still has access. -- Joost
