I run http, mysql, samba, ftp and torrent services on the same machine. Fedora having short lifetime, I prefer to have all that in one directory. Otherwise, I would need to backup /var/www/html, /var/lib/mysql, /wherever/samba-shared, /whatever/ftp/dir and /srv/torrent. Besides, I believe /srv is the official standard for this, why not use it? :-) Marko
