Hi,

I had to stop a live virtualmin backup of a domain (was destined for a download link) as my server was dangerously full.

The space used for the backup (it was in the process of backing iup mailfiles) has not been returned to free space.

i need obviously to delete the temp file (looked in most places).

Thanks

Have a look at /tmp/.webmin or under /home/username directories.
