Eating Away Disk Space



I seem to be having something eat away disk space on my primary partition.
Does anyone have any idea what's going on?

Here is a df log, over the period of about 30 seconds:

  --> Wed 21:22 on cyan : pwd is ~ tcsh# df
Filesystem         1024-blocks  Used Available Capacity Mounted on
/dev/hda1             396165  346057    29648     92%   /

Now just to give you a little insight, /var has been moved to /nfs/var so
I don't think it anything in /var/log causing the problem (since that
would be on /dev/hda3)

Eariler in the evening I did a 'cd /;du -sx *' two seperate times, 15
minutes apart.  The strange thing was, all directories had not changed in
filesize besides /nfs.

This has got me stumped.  Any suggestions would be great.  Thanks!

Nick
