I used the server set up at work, and I'm not really happy with it. Where I
work (small electrical contractor) nobody has used a server before and they
won't use the Samba box I set up so usage is low (me only) so /var is HUGE for
what I need and most is wasted space while /usr and /home are gasping for space
(85%+ and 75%+ used respectively). And I keep needing to add packages for this
or that feature (gotta love VNC:-) )
