Someone brought to my attention that when he does a $dir/siz/total [...] from his root directory, the total blocks shown are 2,000 blocks less than $show quota displays. Now, I've always noticed a slight difference between the two outputs, but 2,000 blocks on a 5,000 block total disk usage? Will this affect what I see as free space from a $show device d command? Who's correct, $dir or $show quota? Stephen J.
