i've had programs hold files open after they've been rotated or
deleted, which makes it really difficult to find. you could try
restarting syslogd, apache, etc...anything that drops log files into
/var. the space won't be reclaimed until the process closes the file
handle.
does anyone know a way to find what's doing it?
