I agree, because for some years I have had a problem with some Gigs of Logs.

Questio:        I like to offer a  new service where Clients can get a 
                virtualhost with 250 MBytes. 

                Hmmm, If I like to protect Clients, - 

                How many Partitions can I make ???

                I mean, Each Client has 250 Mbyte DiskSpace for ftp, 
                http, mail and LOGS and can not use more !!!

                But 200-300 partitions on ONE DISK ???

Thanks
Michelle
