Larry Campbell (campbell@maynard.UUCP) was complaining about disappearing disk space. One possibility is that some program (perhaps something in the news system, since you mentioned it) is creating a temporary file and then unlinking (deleting) it without closing it. Whatever amount of space the open unlinked file uses will be invisibly taken until the program closes it or the system crashes. Michael Lichter michael@cit-vax.arpa
