I admit this is a strange and perhaps unnecessary question, but... I have a openSUSE 10.0 server (was it openSUSE at that time) that is running fine. It has been up for over a year. A while back, the root file system filled up (ftp activity) and some log files are no longer being written to. For example, /var/log/messages. I know that I could reboot and all would be well. But this is Linux. Surely there is another way to restart activity to this file without resorting to a system restart. Any suggestions? FYI, I will be replacing this system with an oS 13.1 system as soon as I am happy that all services are working as they did in 10.0. That is a work in progress. Until then, I have a silly goal of seeing how long the system can run without a reboot. Previous reboots have been because of moving office or relocation of the machine. It just runs and runs. -- Yours sincerely, Roger Oberholtzer Ramböll RST / Systems Office: Int +46 10-615 60 20 Mobile: Int +46 70-815 1696 roger.oberholtzer@ramboll.se ________________________________________ Ramböll Sverige AB Krukmakargatan 21 P.O.
