    This weekend I had httpd, mysql, and ftp all fail on me at the same time, and now all of my users are stuck with thousands of core.xxxx files in all of their websites. Is there any easy way to remove all of these files?

    That doesn't do anything.

    sounds like there are too many files for the wildcard to handle. Try

    rm -f core...something* to lower the wildcard usage then delete the files in batches.

    I think I got it:

    PHP:
    find / \( -name "core.***" \) -print -exec rm -rf {} \;

    upgrade zend optimizer to 3.0.1

    pico /scripts/installzendopt modify version to 3.0.1 and you will go fine.

    regards
