Grex System Problems Item Mark Unseen   Mar 21 04:09 UTC 1999

This item is for system problems.  If something on Grex isn't working 
right (line noise on a modem, weird behavior from a program, etc.), 
this is the place to announce it.  Except for security holes.  If you 
find a hole in system security, mail information about it to "staff".
124 responses total.

As the staff probably knows, /var is full, /tmp is full.
I am finding that I can't edit conference responses I'm writing.

Sounds like Grex is really full of it. 8-)

Is there some way to tell my total grex memory usage?  (home directory, www,
and mail directories)

The unix command is 'du'. This gets you the size of whatever directory tree
you give it. You'll have to do this for your home directory, and for your mail
file (which I am not sure that du can isolate from the rest; you might want
'ls -l /var/mail/keesan' for that.

Memory use, I'm not sure of, but 'free' gets the total memory use of the
system, including both real and virtual. There might be an option to get
memory use only for processes owned by you.

To see the size of her mail file, Sindi should execute
        !ls -l /var/spool/mail/k/e/keesan

I did the var/spool/ thing and got about 92K.
I then typed du /a/k/e/keesan and got
226  for mail
16 for www
551 for home directory 

Does the var/spool/ thing show only mail in inbox?

Yup.

(du shows disk usage in 512-byte blocks.  Multiply by 512 to get bytes.)
