I would prefer to use cron.hourly or cron.daily, and not having to use cron.d. The check is not very expencive. A simple 'df' with sime text parsing, and it completes quickly when no resize is needed. > Today (as opposed to some years ago) I dont think /usr should be on > a seperate partition anymore.

I prefer /usr/ on a separate partition, to be able to boot and try to repair the file system if it go corrupt. The chances of a corrupt root is smaller because it is normally much smaller in size, while /usr/ have a higher chance of touching a bad block due to its size. >> /var 10% 10g defaults >> /var/spool/squid 10% 40g defaults > > is squid configured to use that much space? the default is 256mb...
