Some programs will create files in /tmp and unlink() it immediately, to prevent its being tampered with. This file will exist for as long as the program has an active reference to it, and disappear when the program either exits or closes the file. Such files won't be found with either du or find, at least I think not. So if you don't find anything with the suggestions made by others, try closing programs, and see if that frees up space. regards Anders On Thursday 15 November 2001 16:44, Ed Harrison wrote:
Overnight, I lost about 3Gb of disk space.
How can I locate the biggest files to see what is eating the space?
Thanks in Advance.
