In my case, my log files weren't huge through neglect or nonrotation, but rather were growing fast enough that one could actually see the size increasing quickly while watching HD usge via gkrellm ... error messages were filling them (the mail logs) up rapidly (apparently due to some IMAP setting that got turned on with a recent update), and turning off that daemon, manually rotating the logs to regain some space, and deleting some of the old dross left behind in the process fixed the problem and the logs remain tiny now. :-) But similar, yeah. :-) -- Chuck MATTSEN / [EMAIL PROTECTED] / Mahnomen, MN / RLU #346519 Mandrakelinux release 10.2 (Cooker) for i586 kernel 2.6.3-9mdk MT Lookup: http://eot.com/~mattsen/mtsearch.htm
