After checking out another thread regarding disk space, I checked my
disk usage and found that I had over 1000MB of stuff in /var. Here is
the output of "du -sh *" from /var:
[root at pcp09725103pcs var]# du -sh *
4.0K account
902M cache
2.0M clamav
4.0K db
4.0K dkms
8.0K empty
8.0K gdm
97M lib
4.0K local
20K lock
3.3M log
0 mail
8.0K named
4.0K nis
4.0K opt
4.0K preserve
172K run
936K spool
8.0K state
3.3M tmp
120K webmin
1.2M www
12K yp
Please forgive me, as I am a relative newbie, but what the heck is all
this stuff? What can I get rid of?
