/tmp Filling Up
Jun 6, 2008
I've been receiving emails from cPanel telling me that the /tmp partition is filling up. Right now it's at 6%, but I run a couple of crons early in the morning (mysqlcheck, then a backup of my databases). It seems like whenever mysqlcheck runs, the /tmp partition comes close to filling up.
My partition scheme is like this:
/ | 1.5G
/usr | 7.7G
/var | 7.7G
/tmp | 494M
/home | 210G
/backup | 230G
When my server was set up, my host (dedicatednow) partitioned /home to be 210 GB, leaving little extra space for everything else (/backup is a separate drive). /home is only 1% in use. They're telling me that the only thing that can be done is to reformat the entire drive and choose a different partition scheme... is that true?

In my Exim mail queue, there are around 33,000 messages, all of which appear to be "Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender" messages.
The reason for these bounces is because spam is being continuously sent to non-existent addresses on my domain.

I use cpanel.
Is there any way to disallow connections to SEND mail FROM my server to specific IPs? (Similarly to how you can limit connections to sshd from certain IPs)
I realize I cannot disable everything completely, as yahoo and the likes will have to connect to deliver mail. But no one of any use is going to try and connect to send mail, but a spammer.
No one has gotten in and abused it as of yet (knock on wood), but SMTP is being restarted at random and I can only imagine that this is being caused by one of these scumbags probably ddos'ing me. It takes eons to browse these logs, even if they restart via logrotate periodically!

I have a plesk
[root@srv tmp]# cat /usr/local/psa/version
10.3.1 CentOS 5 1013110726.09
I have following problem:
When i do full backup and download this backup, plesk create a temporary file inside directory /usr/local/psa/tmp but after download finish this file is not deleted, and this is causing problem because i have a server with small disk space.
