  • Web servers can get full very fast of you do not maintain them. :-( I've had hundreds of gigabytes in logs before. "access.log typically grows by 1Mb for each 10,000 requests", if hes just generating errors, it might be bigger, maybe you should set a quota for your apache chroot, or place it on a seperate partition?

  • Thanks for the sound advice.

    I've just set my apache user to use a quota of 150000KB and that is more than enough for the logs. Usually, the logs should rotate, and old logs get discarded - no? That was my experience of UNIX anyways.

  • 8:13 trollface

  • wow GTFO. PROTIP: watch out for security holes you might fall in them and get butthurt.

  • Rofl, My god man - how much ice have you smoked. Stop scratching your face.

  • I've only put x on one install. It was an old scrap laptop with 150mhz, 16mb, and 5GB.

    I usually use openbsd with their version of Apache and Perl for servers and control nodes for research. I usually minimize and use native crypto and stack protection a lot.

  • No worries, I finally did it after reinstalling OpenBSD two or three times! lol

    Basically, Fdisk, newfs, and disklabel all failed with the same error : Drive not configured.

    The only way was to format the drive and prep it via OS Installation media. Now, I have a 152GB Home directory! lol

  • USRAS,

    You are very knowledgeable about OpenBSD. Can I ask you a question?

    Do you know what command(s) are used in preparing a unformatted hard drive for OpenBSD?

    I am thinking FDisk for the partition layout - but how do I go about formatting it?
