Deleted files (check out the output of 'lsof' and look for deleted files)? This happens a lot when your log rotation system rotates a log but the daemon logging to it isn't restarted or told to use the new log files. Also, you could have sparse files (read the man page for 'du' under --apparent-size) that appear to be using more space than 'du' normally reports. -- Jonathan Billings <billings at negate.org>
