Hi all !
I've noticed that I cannot edit my crontab anymore… Indeed, if I type "cronie -e", I get the following error : « /tmp/crontab.XXXX6DaGnD: No space left on device. » Then I reminded the mail that Daniel Kinzler sent to the mailing list a few days ago ("Toolserver status, and what WMDE is doing about it"). He explained that, unfortunately, the TS was « running out of disk space now ».
Moreover, I keep getting mail errors, with the same error report : « Unable to run job: job rejected: no script in your request. Exiting. »
Are both these problems linked to a lack of disk space ? If so, maybe every user might try to clear his home, in the aim to free some memory ? Or maybe is there something that I misunderstood ?
Regards, — Toto Azéro

I opened some overlarge files today on willow. That crashed my editor and left a big chunk of data in /tmp. I deleted those files, the disk is again “free” now. I want to apologize for the inconveniences (I haven't noticed first) and hope that everything is working as before.

/tmp is not related to /home storage-wise, so clearing homes would have no effect.
