ufs_aolloc.c :/ file system full

I am running Ubix SVR4, namely MP-Ras unix. I installed a remote printer and now I keep getting an error that looks like this:
ufs_alloc.c /: file system full

I have deleted the remote printer but am still receiving this error. I know it has something to do with the fact that my / partition is only 10% available. My question is, does anyone know what the temporary directory for NCR MP-Ras unix was so that I can see of deleting the log files will help with this error. Thank You

Till today I was not aware about of this UNIX variant. I just did a little google search. Found some obscure, unmaintained old documents. Does it have any /tmp directory? Not sure this system's filesystem hierarchy. But, if it emulates Windows NT (that's what I found out from google), it got to mount the directories. Can you check mount command and see what directory C:\ actually points to? Does it have any /etc/vfstab or /etc/fstab file?

Also, do you have any specific reason of using this UNIX variant?

The only reason we are using this variant is that as a company when we bought our server 12 years ago that is what came with it. I did restart the server and the error message went away. Must have been logs or temporary files that were deleted upon restarting. The only problem I am having now is that since the restart I cannot get the tcp/ip network working. When I try to start the network, I am gettting the error
/etc/rc2.d>S60inet start
STREAMware TCP Network Initialization.
Using System Definition File (SDF) to configure network
starting network: /usr/sbin/slink: Function "boot", command 1: initqp: open "/de
v/inet/udp": No such file or directory
cannot start slink process...
Network Startup FAILED.
Error: bad return from tcplaunch, cannot continue.

Any ideas...thank you

I hate to say it but its time to upgrade the OS. I worked on MP-RAS and SVR4 when it first came out 24 years ago. I'm afraid I forgot the nitty gritty of the OS. "/dev/inet/udp" is the UDP device node. It looks like it got clobbered. You need to find out how to recreate it. My manual books are long gone or I would be able to help.

What's the hardware? Want a consultant to try to fix it?

Good luck.
