hello..

i've just installed fedora core 3 to be used as a small server for our intranet application using tomcat and httpd..

i'm really new to linux so i thought maybe i can find an answer in here...
but i'm really sorry if this question had been asked before..

for about a week the server is running ok, but after that the access to the server is very2 slow.. and when i see at the disk usage, there is a very large file named /var/log/bandwidth which has grown to about 1 gb size
(my /var partition is only 1,2 gb) after i deleted this file, magically the server is running ok again... but i can't seem to find which application whos in charge of logging into this file.. when i search the internet, i only find an app named bandmin.. and i made sure that bandmin is not installed in the server...

is there anyone who can give me directions about this.. or how to disable this logging?

thank you very much

If it's logging through syslog, take a look at You might also look at logrotate, which can be made to rotate this logfile more frequently, thus reducing its size.
