Until a user fills up their home directory with kitten gifs and you can no longer login because syslog has no space to write to /var. The "everything on slash" mentality is a short-sighted partitioning workaround that never should have seen the light of day. Many commercial packages do this as well and those systems give me endless grief when applications running there either fill up /var or dump endless blobs in /tmp. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
