First hit on google:

long/

 

You need to make a script that calls rm for each file.

 

Or, run rm in parts.. 

rm filestatstartwitha*

etc..

Onderwerp: [BlueOnyx:01681] Sendmail attack, again

 

Thought I was all finished with this. Had firewall rules set to block the
numerous IP's attacking the server, however, it was not enough.

My /var folder is 100% full. Most of it in the /var/spool/mqueue

But I cannot delete or look at the files, when i try to 
[root at raq1 mqueue]# rm -f *
bash: /bin/rm: Argument list too long

anyone have any ideas.

Also, none of the mail on this server is relevant. It is not being used as a
mail server, for the most part.
