Most of us do search the archive prior to asking a question.  That is why
you don't hear from me (and probably a lot of others) and I have been on the
list for over six months.  When I do need your help because my search turned
up nothing of value, it starts a flame war because some one is to high
hatted to help.  They had rather spend their time with worthless drivel!

BTW,  If anyone is interested, I found the culprit that was eating my hard
drive space.  Thanks flash22, you were the only one that offered any help!
I am using the backup program in the RaQ3 GUI to put the backup file on an
FTP server in my house.  It turns out that the program builds the file to
the tmp directory before FTPing and leaves them there.  Go figure!  Is this
normal?  Don't know, but I will be telnetting in once a week to delete these
files.
