I suggest you re-partition your harddisk. I prefer you have a seperate partition for the /home if you are into giving out shells. It always depends on what the purpose of the box would be regarding to partitions. If it for webspace a decent size of /var would do. Have fun! hope this reaction would teach you few tips :) -- -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
