Hi,

I am new to linux, I am trying to log into a Linux server which is at the
moment a stand alone machine. I am trying to log into the windows type
enviornment. I am not able to log into the windows type environment as any
user including the root user. However after a few logins, it gets me the
prompt and there I am able to log in. 
However I have these strange mesages in the inbox of the root user. The
first type of message is

Subject: Cron <mailman@penguin> /usr/bin/python -S
/var/mailman/cron/gate_news
Body:
Logging errors:<StampedLogger to '/var/mailman/logs/error'>
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/var/mailman/Mailman/Logging/Logger.py", Line 74, in write
  f.write(msg)
IOError:{Errno 28} No space left on device
Original log message:
 [Errno 28] No space left on device
 Traceback (innermost last):
   File "/var/mailman/cron/gate_news", Line 222, in ?
   main()
   File "/var/mailman/cron/gate_news", Line 198, in main
   lock.lock(timeout=0.5)
   File "/var/mailman/Mailman/LockFile.py", Line 219, in lock
   self.__write()
   File "/var/mailman/Mailman/LockFile.py", Line 352, in _write
   fp.close()
 IOerror:[Errno 28] No space left on device

This meesage is follwed by 3-4 (or more)  messages of the following type

Subject: Cron <mailman@penguin> /usr/bin/python -S
/var/mailman/cron/qrunner
Body:
Logging error:<StampedLogger to '/var/mailman/logs/error'>
Traceback (innermost last):
  File '/var/mailman/Mailman/Logging/Logger.py", Line 74, in write
  f.write(msg)
IOError:[Errno 28] No space left on device
Original log mesage:
[Errno 28] No space left on device.

These kinds of message keep coming after ever 5 mins and in about 30 mins
I get close to 100 such messages. I still have around 40 GB of free hard
disk space. 
When I delete these messages and reboot the machine, I am able to log in
to the windows type environment. However I face the same problem if i try 
to log in again.
Please advice. Any help is greatly appreciated,

Thanks,
Rahul.
