:-) as you can see... however /tmp is a symlink to /var/tmp, and you have to be caucious to do as little as root, because otherwise root's homedir would grow too large. Actually 40 MB would be very, very fine (lot's of spare place if you either use a /tmp symlink or force as many apps as possible to use /var/tmp as their temp) best regards, Marcin -- --------------------------------- Marcin Owsiany [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------------
