Hi,
I've setup a firewall with a compact flash instead of a hard-drive. This is
the output of mount:
/dev/ad0s2a on / (ufs, local, read-only)
mfs:17 on /var (mfs, asynchronous, local)
procfs on /proc (procfs, local)
mfs:36 on /dev (mfs, asynchronous, local)
As you see, I mount the compact flash as read-only and I setup a memory
filesystem for /var
In my rc.conf file:
diskless_mount="/etc/rc.diskless2"
varsize="131072"
Output of: df

/dev/ad0s2a 229942 197570 13978 93% /

It seems to have a big difference between the output of df and du.
My problem is, my /var partition is getting filled very quickly and I don't
know why ? I don't know what to clean. I've already deleted some log, but
I saved only 2% of free space or 1000 block.
I don't know what is taking all this space ? Any ideas ?
