The problem I'm having is, after they do the rm's, it doesn't free the disk space. df shows it still being used, but du claims their directories are empty.


Please see

..regarding this. Maybe a kill -HUP nfsd might help ?


Actually, no. In fact, I just did a quick test, with a 500mb file, and as root, I deleted the 500mb, and my df doesn't report the newly freed space - I did this locally, with no NFS in the mix.. I have softupdates turned on, and quotas turned on (although I just recently turned on the quotas after having this problem, so that isn't causing problems)..

Any ideas anyone?
