And how EXACTLY do you want me to answer the original question? Be specific,
"You should have done <blash>" responses don't help anyone. The question only
has vague guidelines for answers and is totally install- and need-dependant.
Do keep in mind that the original is a "do my homework for me" question and my
reply was designed to get the OP to look for himself. He didn't even post how
big his current /var is or what his machine is used for or even which logs
he'd like to have and keep.
