I've been running without ntpd for a while. I haven't dealt with
SecurityServer. I asked around about it, and no one knew anything.
Does os x have anything equivalent to the old os9 trick of running your
system from a ram disk? It seems like there should be some way of putting
/var/log into ram so writes don't actually hit the disk. Yeah, that would screw
up any possibilities of getting useful log info after a crash. But I don't really
want that. I'm just using the machine as a music server. It if crashes, so what
I just reboot.
