that's what I do Kevin. I have a cron job that cleans up all of the Oracle log files. These audit files, Listener logs, Alert Logs, Trace files etc. I run it twice a month, deleting anything that is 30 days or older. rename alert logs and listener logs, rman's sbtio.log file so that they will be deleted by a later run.

works for me.

Thanks. Guess its clean-up job time.

IIRC, these files are generated whenever someone logs in as sysdba or internal. I don't know of any way to stop them.
