I will always put /var in it's own "area" even if the definition of that area has changed with the use of ZFS. Rampant writes to /var can *still* run / out of space even on ZFS, being able to keep that from happening is never a bad idea as far as I'm concerned. :) -brian -- "Coding in C is like sending a 3 year old to do groceries.
