Re: [cobalt-users] virtual site logs

["John Gillis" <cobalt@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

in theory, yes.

but can we force people to pay for gigs of storage, when we don't even give 
them access to remove it?

users can not delete logs via ftp. I end up having to SU and rm them myself. 
if you know a better way around it, please let me know.

and I have found users running perl script that edit files have serious 
problems with their quota is exceeded. it usually ends up having processes 
using 100% of the cpu while trying to write when it has not more access to, 
slowing down every site on that server until i get to kill the pid.
