Where do you have space? This is a good reason why /var/ shouldn't be on the / partition. Especially /var/cache (and /var/spool). Why not create a partition and mount it on /var/cache in fstab, rather than messing with the FHS? Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
