Good advice. The OP should also try to put /var, /tmp on separate partitions. If /var is on a separate fs, you can limit the damage caused by a bad app thats rapidly filling up /var/log/. The FreeBSD handbook provides good reading on why/how to partition: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/configtuning-initial.html I typically put /, /usr. /tmp, /var, /home, /data on separate partitions. - Raja _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
