It can be a good idea, but there are other ways to do it. One way is to use multilog which is specifically designed to never fill your disk. With multilog you always know exactly how much space it will use. > Another reason is to have a file system problem on one > partition separated from the other partitions. Am I off base? I can't think of any other problems where a separate file system would help. Separate file systems have advantages, but in my opinion aren't worth that much effort. -- David Phillips <david at acz.org> http://david.acz.org/ _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota Help beta test TCLUG's potential new home: http://plone.mn-linux.org Got pictures for TCLUG?
