Thanks. Very helpful. I moved logs to another location yesterday and deleted most of /tmp today after applying the patch. I like learning better solutions.
Now I'm looking for other patches that I should have applied to the packages that I use. It's interesting that I do not have a space problem when in single-user mode. Whatever is giving the false reading only occurs when all services/apps are running. I bet that's a clue 8-) Mark >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 09/25/02 14:26 PM >>> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 On 25-Sep-2002/14:02 -0500, Mark Gillingham <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >After upgrading from 7.2 to 7.3 I noticed that I had no drive space.

If /tmp is the problem, you can start in single-user mode and delete most of what you find in /tmp. Check /etc/logrotate.conf and uncomment "compress". That way your old log files will be compressed. After fixing your Slapper vulnerability, you might want to compress or delete the log files that have already been rotated. Tony - -- Anthony E.
