How do I get control of the log files. I am running out of space and that is mostly RSS feeds but I am looking for anything else I can clear out while I am it.

Actually if you read those scripts you will see that all they do is rotate log files. OS X would make Commander Ductape proud. It logs almost everything you do. Those log files grow very large so the maintenance scripts archive the old and start a new log file. Different log files grow at different rates so that is why you hace daily, weekly, and monthly scripts. At present the log files to not get emailed to Homeland Security. They probably didn't think of doing it yet. ************************************************************************ * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
