Lisa,
Here is my line in fstab on a RH 7.3 box.
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults
0 0
/dev/shm /var/spool/MIMEDefang tmpfs
mode=0700,size=2000M,uid=defang,gid=defang 0 0
Watch the size and adjust accordingly. I have 4Gig RAM in this box
Is your /dev/shm mounted? Gots to be done first.
Also, do you have a /dev/shm ? Been so long since I have set this up I
cannot remember if I had to create one or not <G>

Hi Folks,
Sorry to bother you guys with this but I'm really not sure just how to go
about doing this.
I'm using Redhat 7.2 and Mimedefang 2.48. I want to move
/var/spool/MIMEDefang onto a RAMdisk.
I've looked at http://www.mimedefang.org/node.php?id=27 I tried the
command suggested for unix (mount -t tmpfs -o
size=200m,mode=0700,uid=defang,gid=defang /dev/shm /var/spool/MIMEDefang)
but got this error message:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/shm,
or too many mounted file systems
Should I create a RAMdisk the way it is suggested in
http://www.vanemery.com/Linux/Ramdisk/ramdisk.html ??
If so, then how do I move (mount?) /var/spool/MIMEDefang to the RAMdisk?
I suppose this is probably simple enough to do but I've managed to make
myself nervous about trying it. Can someone here help me get this done?
I'ld sure appreciate it.
Lisa Casey
