There is probably a file (or severral) that has been unlinked by rsync, but is still open by some other program, and therefore it's space can't be freed up. Killing the other relevant program, or rebooting, frees up the space. Use lsof to discover what files are open in that directory. -- Martin -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
