It seems to be deleting files that are older than a few days. From what I understand this is what most systems do for /scratch dirs. Well I have started mounting it as /work now, but what I wanted to know is where I can enable/disable the file deletion stuff. If I am totally off base let me know, for all I know mounting it as /work will not do what I want but I am just trying it till I get the information. Thanks, Mike
