Can anyone offer me some advice on repartioning my drives to give more room to the system files?

When I setup my mail server, I only gave 1 gig to the system, and the rest for user accounts.

I didn't realize that it could run out of space. What are my best options?

Thanks

Jay.

If you could post the results of a

df -h


command, it would be a good place to start.

Also, what OS and version?

[root@mail /root]# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda5 988M 817M 121M 88% /
/dev/sda1 99M 11M 83M 12% /boot
/dev/sdb2 7.4G 20k 7.0G 1% /one
/dev/sdc1 8.4G 20k 7.9G 1% /two
/dev/sda6 7.4G 127M 6.8G 2% /zero
[root@mail /root]#

What i was able to do was move my home directory to /zero where all of the users directories are. That freed us 120 megs on the / partition. but that is only a temp fix

I'm running redhat 7.0 with 2.4.5 kernel.

Thanks

Jay.

Also, the server has three 9.6 gig drives.
