hi,
i donīt know that is a bug or not.

i have upload 36 mb files for a new
account.
the traffic stats say 36 mb but the diskspace stats
say 82 mb in use ?

any idee ?


and no :) the emailboxes are empty :) no more other
files :)

uploading a file will be included in your bandwidth as its using transfer.

Do you have anything atall apart from the 36MB uploaded to that account?

hi,

when i do
du -lsm userhome

i get back "23" :)

i understand when the traffic-transfer is higher
then the diskspace,

i understand that the count from a windows folder to an unix folder is differend.

windows folder 36mb
unix folder 23 mb
think it a problem with the filesystem (ntfs / ext3)

but i donīt understand that the disk space is higher than the bandwidth :)
and he put the files only up with a ftp client. :)

Hello,

Has the nightly tally been run yet? It's only computed once per day, so your stats will only change after that happens.

If you have root, you can type:

echo "action=tally&value=all" >> /usr/local/directadmin/data/task.queueto make it run the nightly tally right away (takes anywhere from 5-30 minutes depending on how many users you have)
