Hi there, I've installed freebsd 4.9 and am currently busy with installing third party apps through the ports collection. What worries me however is the size of my /var directory. Take a look at my disk geometry.. I also had to get rid of a pkg.db file in the /var/db/pkg directory because it took a lot of space. q1) Do I have to worry about my /var<directory q2) How can I get rid of files I don't need (like XFree86.0.log..) Other suggestions are welcome... Brgds __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Hotjobs: Enter the "Signing Bonus" Sweepstakes http://hotjobs.sweepstakes.yahoo.com/signingbonus
