As a general rule, unless the ext3 file system experiences a crash that prevents it from writing data to the disk, it won't experience any problems that can be corrected by fsck unless the drive is unreliable (or controller, or memory, etc.) I'm not suggesting you not do it, but it's probably better to just reboot into single user mode and fsck the filesystem if this is what you want to do. That being said, xfs and/or jfs would be better choices for a filesystem, for both speed and reliability. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
