  Hi all

  Have just got some problems with the schools proxy RH7, squid etc

  Machine appeared to freeze about 30 mins ago. Basically a who lot of
gobbydegook on the screen that made little sense to me. Immediate thought.
This doesn't look good.

  Upon restarting get the following message

  /var contains a file system with errors, check forced.
  /var:
  Inode 30383 has illegal block(s)

  /var: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY.
              (i.e., without -a or -p options)

  ***An error occurred during the file system check.
  ***Dropping you to a shell; the system will reboot
  ***When you leave the shell.

  Give root password for maintenanc
  (or type Control-D for normal operations:


  Thats it
  I've read up in the manual about fsck but it doesn't make a lot of sense.
Have run fsck with appropriate switches but I just get more info about
errors in /var

  Any ideas appreciated. I can rebuild the server in an hour or so but I'd
like to learn how to solve problems. How fatal is this error?

  Thanks

  Trevor
