Since my background is a software engineer not a system administrator, I have generally used DU to manage my own disk space, or possibly to look at disk space usage on the BLU servers. But, recently I'm seeing significant increase in my work's backup server (a WD MyBook). While du works fine (using the appropriate options), it does take some time to analyze the results. One issue I have is whether the increase in space is due to someone moving things around (such as in a client space) that will break the hard links, but eventually the storage will go down as the older dailies are removed. I only keep a few weeks because out New York office backs us up also. So, what I am looking for is either some decent tools I can use that are less time consuming than looking at du output. -- Jerry Feldman <gaf at blu.org> Boston Linux and Unix PGP key id:3BC1EB90 PGP Key fingerprint: 49E2 C52A FC5A A31F 8D66 C0AF 7CEA 30FC 3BC1 EB90
