Dave,

Your /dev/hda2 partition, mounted as /, has 37 Gig of space available to it.

29 Gig is being used. Since you're only looking at the stats for one domain, you can't see where or why.

What you need to do is shell in, become root, and then run:

du -sh /*

That will give you an idea of what's using the extra space.

Then you can check inside the big users individually this way:

du -sh /home
du -sh /var

etc., to see what's using the space inside those directories.

For more information on how to use du, see the du man pages:

$ man du
