Hi there!

I'm really not sure what has happened here... I've had a dedicated OpenSUSE box running headless as my Plex Media Server box for a few months now, and today I decided to fire up a plex client, and it couldn't connect. That was odd, I thought. I tried to VNC into it, and nothing... SSH worked. I SSH'd into the box, and I tried to run a sudo command and I got the following:

Code:

sudo: unable to write to /var/lib/sudo/kevinhanson/0:root: No space left on device
What confuses me is that I still have plenty of free space. Check out the results below:

Code:

username@plex-media-server:~> df -hFilesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3        41G  23G  18G  56% /
devtmpfs        7.8G  32K  7.8G  1% /dev
tmpfs          7.8G    0  7.8G  0% /dev/shm
tmpfs          7.8G  5.6M  7.8G  1% /run
tmpfs          7.8G    0  7.8G  0% /sys/fs/cgroup
tmpfs          7.8G  5.6M  7.8G  1% /var/run
tmpfs          7.8G  5.6M  7.8G  1% /var/lock
/dev/sda4        70G  133M  69G  1% /home
/dev/sda1      164M  164K  164M  1% /boot/efi

Anyone know what the issue might be? I'm pretty confused how this happened, as I literally haven't done anything - thanks!
