Also, on kind of a side note, I usually setup /var on a seperate
partition so that if it does become full you still have access to your
system, and it will mostly still function as normal.
While this is common practice, I question its usefulness because most
variable system data is housed in /var. So if a log file fills /var, it
also crashes your database, mail, and the ability to properly startup
services because /var/run will full.
I could see partitioning /var/log off on its own, but putting all of
/var in one partition doesn't seem to solve all that much.
