There's "fuser -mv /", but that just tells you which processes are accessing the disk, not how much each is taking. If you want to know possible culprits, check your /etc/crontab - by default, it's set up to do some maintenance stuff between 5 and 6 in the morning. fuser is in the psmisc package Jiri <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
