Id try a "du -hsx /" and see what exacly is taking up the space.

Move out /etc/named to /var/named or something and reconfigure named for
it.

Do a "find / -x -iname "*core*" -print" and see if you have and stale
core-files somewhere taking up the space - and if so erase them.

Um.. he have a seperate /var so I dont think that could be the problem..

Its a few things to try.. but if it is still growing something is taking
up some major space by now and I dont think just enlarging the disk
would fix this permanently.

Good luck,
