Re: Is there a quick way to see what is filling up the disk?

[Vernon Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

When I worked at Centerfield Tenchology, I wrote a tool called 
disk/Hunter, which monitored free space very efficiently. I think it was 
bought up by s4i. Low impact on the system, configurable to handle 
situations.

I believe Help Systems had a similar product, Robot/Space - not sure if 
it is still available.

Someone on these lists had a free utility - it has been YEARS since it 
was mentioned - again, very light impact but efficient. I don't think it 
was Alan Campin, who does a lot of good work - someone else, maybe.

Vern
