when I do a df, the amount used+avail does not equal the number of blocks
in the filesystem:
Filesystem  512-blocks    Used    Avail   Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/wd0a    593934       308712  237707    56%     /
why??
BTW: I have Essential System Administration, Unix Unleashed, and Mastering
Tools, Taming Daemons. Any other good books that could provide answers
to the more complex questions??  The above contain too much fluff.
thx,
