Unfortunately, nothing new that i have not already tried. Webmin has a FileManager module, so i already have an idea what files are consuming space, its just that for a mirror that has been running for a while, i cant find anything else to be consuming the space other than the packages. And i cant (wont) stop the mirror. there was nothin in the /var/..../cache/.../archives
