Hi mate,

I would highly advise you not to stop logging of your server..

If you want, you can only log very important issues rather than everything.

Look for the following..

# LogLevel: Control the number of messages logged to the error.log.
# Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit,
# alert, emerg.
#
LogLevel warn

Just change that to a higher item from the list so that there is less getting logged..

If you stop logging totally, a hacker could be running riot on your server and you have no way to know, never mind start tracing the problem..

Hope this helps Wullie
