Just in case you encountered problems that *may* be related to mergemaster, vi, or any other software you're running that requires "persistent temporary files" (sounds illogical). There shouldn't be much stuff accumulating in /var/tmp. If you didn't have trouble yet, I don't think it is a big no-go to symlink /var/tmp tp /tmp (tmpfs). -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
