Does this machine run full-time or id it dual boot? If it's a full time machine, the cron scripts should take care of this, if it's not a full time machine, somewhere in /etc/cron.d you can probably find a script to do this /etc/cron.daily/aaa_base_clean_tmp ... in SuSE 7.1 or /etc/cron.d/Daily/40cleandir ... in COL eS2.3.1 ...yours should be something like this, distros vary. Have a poke about, most of these things have settings specifying how long to leave what files behind. It's a distinct possibility that most of the 10 meg on your machine hasn't aged enough to be nuked. -- Linux SxS [http://hal.humberc.on.ca/~mrcn0031/sxs/] _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list Archives, Digests, etc at http://linux.nf/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
