The original question was "how big should /var be?" and the correct answer to that question is "mu" (google it) If we had the output of "df -h" and "du -sh /var/*" plus a description of what the machine actually does, some general advice could be given to the OP. As it stands with the information given, the only useful answer is "you'll have to work that out yourself" which is what I said right back at the beginning. -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
