you can copy all the contents of /var to /usr and then symlink it

:> HI all
:> I am constantly having trouble with the /var partition on 
:> a rh7.2 server. It
:> runs Dans Gaurdian and Squid. The following is the output 
:> from df -h
:> Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
:> /dev/hda6             372M  106M  247M  31% /

:> /dev/hda3             9.4G  227M  8.6G   3% /home

:> /dev/hda7             251M  238M  664k 100% /var

:> Question: Is it possible to repartition a live system and 
:> move some of the
:> space on the /usr partition over to /var?
:> If so what utility(ies) could I use?
