[CentOS] enlarging partition and its filesystem

Hi all!

I've got a VM at work running C6 on HyperV (no, its not my fault,
that's what the company uses. I'd rather gag myself than own one
of th ose things.)

I ran out of disk space in the VM, so the admin enlarged the virtual disk.
but now I realize I don't know how to enlarge the partition and its
filesystem.

I'll be googling, but in case I miss it, it'd be great if someone could
point me in the right direction.

thanks!

Fred
