- We operate this machine with little extra space in the disk partition
- where the UUCP spool areas are. The machine ran out of space in the /
- filesystem due to a failure of a machine to poll this site.
- Eventually the poll happened and things appeared to be otherwise normal
- except that there is space missing in / about equal to the amount in the
- particular spool directory when the machine was discovered in the
- 'filesytem full' state.
- I've tried running fsck and fixed some problems, but can't recover the space.
- If anyone has some idea where to go next I would surely appreciate it.
