df report

[Mike Starke]

After deleteing a very large file which grew out
of control in one of users home directories, the
command 'df' still shows that partition with the same
amount of disk usage. How can I reclaim that space?

For instance; before the file was deleted,
df reported 36% of /home was used. After the file
was deleted, df still reports 36%.
df -i will report 0% IUse.

a normal df command on that partition will report
roughly 3-5%.

Tips please
