Hi I run the system partition for my Raspberry Pi Samba server off a USB hard disk. I want the disk to sleep when not accessed for user data so I want log files to live in tmpfs. Currently, if I put the drive in standby (using hdparm) it immediately wakes again. I search for files changed very recently and see: $ sudo /usr/local/sbin/ff_changed 1 Search whole filesystem for changed files in the last 1 minutes /dev/xconsole /var/lib/samba /var/lib/samba/wins.dat /var/lib/sudo/ts/david /var/log/auth.log Is there something I should do to ensure that Samba logs are directed to tmpfs? Best regards David
