It's still "almost" full. There's about 2.5 megs free.

You would say that. You're lucky enough to have a home directory on /d.

I've seen this too, sometimes, recently. Had to give up & dial in later.

sometimes green text showed up on my screen yesterday. Then it went away,
this happened about 4 times, two different sessions.

re #176: that's likely because polytarp's conferencing name has been
changed to something which contains terminal-control escape sequences
which select a different font color..

/a is full again. I created another loginid in the hopes I'd get space
on one of the home partitions that doesn't fill up quite so often, but
it stuck that one on /a too. :P

I got polytarp's green too. I figured it was his as it showed up
simultaneously with a response from him. What would have been the simplest
online way to neutralize it? I logged off and back in.

Hmmm . . . I don't know about 'simplest', but you could set your terminal
software to not execute escape sequences. Unfortunately, I don't know
how to do that; my terminal was not affected by that little . . . joke.

I'm not sure if this is a problem or by design, but when I try
to ftp to Grex to download files, my ssh connection gets dropped
almost instantly.

I have a problem completely unrelated to the disk-eating assholes:
I'm having a difficult (read: impossible) time trying to transfer
files to and from Grex.
First, FTP seems to be blocked. Hard. Here is the result of
two attempts to log in to Grex; in both cases ftp simply froze
until I hit ^\, no user prompt, no password prompt:
[russ@localhost russ]$ ftp cyberspace.org
Connected to cyberspace.org (216.93.104.34).
Quit
[russ@localhost russ]$ ftp cyberspace.org
Connected to cyberspace.org (216.93.104.34).
Quit
A trial of ftp from ftp.sri.com immediately after this worked fine.
This proves that there is no problem between my keyboard and the
greater Internet; it is a Grex problem. (M-Net doesn't work either,
but it lets me log in and only fails when I try to transfer data.)
Second, I've been trying to tunnel ftp through ssh in order to get
around these blocks. I forwarded port 8021 to Grex port 21, and
got a reward:
[russ@localhost russ]$ ftp
ftp> open localhost 8021
Connected to localhost (127.0.0.1).
220 grex.cyberspace.org FTP server (Version wu-2.6.1-GREX(10) Mon Dec 3
00:09:59 EST 2001) ready. Name (localhost:russ): russ 331 Password required for
russ. Password: 230->>>NO PSYBNC<<< >>>NO EGGDROP<<< NO NO NO!!!!! Won't run

connection. ftp>
So there you go. I can run a terminal session over TCP/IP, but I can't
pull down copies of my mail or anything else of use. What do I have to
do to get the functionality of a lousy dial-in user?

Interesting. I'd tried scp but got error messages and didn't see
how to relate them to corrective action, so I gave up. Tried just
now and it actually works. It's clunky but I think I can manage.
Thanks!

The /a partition was full, preventing users whose home directories are
located on it from responding in bbs, saving their mail, and doing anything
else requiring writing data to the disk. I identified the major disk
hogs and did some cleaning up, giving us a bit of breathing room.

/a was full a few minutes ago. It's now got a little space, hopefully
enough to let me enter this response without crashing something.
