Determining who consumes disk space

2007-12-25 1:15:00

Dear managemers

we have a 40GByte disk with home directories (30 users), databases,
backups and so on. "df -b" reports that 35 Gbyte are in use so we
slowly have to take care that we do not run out of disk space. I am now
searching for a way to determine how much disk space is allocated by
which user in which directory so that I can tell which user has tons of
old emails in his home directory that probably can be deleted and so on.

How would I go for this? I would like to get a list of

directory bytes allocated

or anything comparable. I checked the man page of df but did not find
the answer.

Thanks a lot,

Andreas
