Hello Mr. Smaff, Thank you for replying to my message, your comments give an idea how to solve the inconvenience. I was surfing the file structure of my Nokia box to try free up some space in the hard drive with no luck. In linux if want to blank a log file, I simply use the following: $ > logfile.log And this creates a file with the 0 bytes file size ready to use by the daemon to continue logging events. But in Nokia box, an errors show ups, expressing that the syntax isn't right and doesn't perform anything.
Any ideas or comments, how to do this?

UNIX allocates a certain amount of spare space on any partition purely for root (or admin on the Nokia - uid 0 either way) processes. Its basically to prevent non-administrative processes breaking the system by filling the disk to the point that admin process start failing because they can't write to various files. It'll almost certainly be your firewall logs. If you're using NG, you can set the log cycling periods, and maximum amount of logs it'll keep in the gui. If its an older version you'll need to setup a cron entry to do this. There's various examples out there of such scripts.
