Hi folks does anyone know how to resize /var/log _without_ rebooting the LEAF box. I stopped ksyslogd, ntp and ulogd, rmoved all files from the /var/log directory but still cannot umount it.
# /etc/init.d/sysklogd stop Stopping system log daemon: klogd syslogd. telecom: -root- # /etc/init.d/ulogd stop Stopping ulogd: ulogd. telecom: -root- # /etc/init.d/ntp stop Stopping NTP server: ntpd. telecom: -root- # cd /var/log telecom: -root- # ls auth.log daemon.log messages ntpstats shorewall.log ulogd.log cron.log debug ntpd ppp.log syslog telecom: -root- # rm -rf * telecom: -root- # ls telecom: -root- # cd / telecom: -root- # umount -f /var/log umount: forced umount of tmpfs failed!
