Hmmm...

If your config files have ServerTracing and SessionTracing set to
something higher than 1, you can turn it down.

You *can* turn it to 0, but I'd really recommend you don't.  Disk space
is *so* much cheaper than your labor costs to diagnose problems when
they crop up that it's a false economy, IMHO.

Now, you might want to check your crontab -- there's *supposed* to be a
regular cron job that kills off older commlogs; if that's not running,
you might have a never ending space gobbler...

Hope it continues to work out well for you otherwise, though, and if
you have any questions, let us know.

BTW: we'd probably be curious about your setup, if you don't mind
sharing.  HF version, number and type of modems, CPU/memory/HD, number
of client machines; that sort of thing...

Cheers,
