Hi,

TRY THIS:
df -t /usr

Report the total allocated block figures and the number of free
blocks, for the file system mounted as /usr:
so you can put the path of the user you wish to see instead of /usr.

Good luck. Hope that helps.
Bye
Rooh

Try using this

Insert the following into a file called "dusage"
Code:
##########################################PN=`basename "$0"`                      # Program name
VER=`echo '$Revision: 1.2 $' | cut -d' ' -f2`
if [ $# = 0 ]
then
echo "Please Enter Directory Name:\c"
read PROG
else
PROG=$1
fi
# Determine mail spool directory (BSD/SYSV)
for MailDir in "$PROG"
do
    [ -d "$MailDir" -a -r "$MailDir" ] && break
done

Usage () {
    echo >&2 "$PN - show top 10 directory users, $VER (hs '94)
usage: $PN [directory ...]

If no directory is specified, $MailDir is the default."
    exit 1
}

[ $# -gt 0 -a "$1" = "-h" ] && Usage

# set the default directory
[ $# -lt 1 ] && set $MailDir

echo "NAME                     BYTES    FILES   PERCENT"
ls -lL "$@" |
    awk '
        (NF == 8 || NF == 9 ) {                 # BSD or SYSV
            # example of a line:
            # -rw-------  1 andrea     286282 Oct 21 11:24 andrea
            #           or
            # -rw-------  1 andrea entw  286282 Oct 21 11:24 andrea
            Usage [$3] += $(NF-4)       # used bytes, username is index
            Count [$3]++
            TotalBytes += $(NF-4)
        }
        END {
            for ( user in Usage )
                printf "%-15s %12d      %d      %2d\n", \
                    user, Usage [user], Count [user], \
                    Usage [user] * 100 / TotalBytes
        }
    ' | sort -nr +1 | head
exit 0
##########################################

as soon as that's done wq! and change the file prority to rwxrwx

like this
chmod 770 dusage

now if you have root access move dusage to /usr/sbin

then move back to your home dirr and type in

dusage
it will then ask you what dirr you would like to check

The outcome and advantage of this is that it shows you the block space in % and the user taking up that space.

Have Fun
Marcus.
