Can anyone tell me what ere the files in the /var/lib/mysql/hostname-bin.000xx means?

It used a lot off diskspace (total 73GB)
How do the get there, and how disabled it.
 
.bin files give you a way to recreate databases. Unless you learn how to use them and offer (hopefully as a paid service) the ability to restore MySQL databases up to the last entry, you probably don't need them, and even if you do, you only need to keep them since your last restart of MySQL.
