Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers NOQUEUE: low on space ( have 0, SMTP-DAEMON needs 101 in /var/spool/mqueue) Post 22831 by RTM on Tuesday 11th of June 2002 11:26:57 AM

You can do a man on core -

NAME
core - core image file

DESCRIPTION
The operating system writes out a core image of a process
when it is terminated due to the receipt of some signals.
The core image is called core and is written in the
process's working directory (provided it can be; normal
access controls apply). A process with an effective user ID
different from the real user ID will not produce a core
image. This is also true for a process with an effective
group ID different from the real group ID. Set-user-ID and
set-group-ID programs do not produce core images either when they terminate, since this would cause a security loophole.

Also go to www.sendmail.org and read the FAQs. If this server is for mail only, you would want to insure you turn off anything else (telnet, ftp, remote services...). Check the web for security issues.

Another thing - check the size of your /var/adm/messages* file(s).
It may be they are filling up your / file system. You wrote that /var/spool/mqueue was empty so it isn't email doing it.

Which email are you using - Sendmail or something else?

SYNOPSIS

       igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ...
       igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ...

DESCRIPTION

       Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1).

       AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like

	      @include getopt.awk

       in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path.

OPTIONS

       See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports.

EXAMPLES

       cat << EOF > test.awk
       @include getopt.awk

       BEGIN {
	    while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1)
		 ...
       }
       EOF

       igawk -f test.awk
