Problem

Hi,
I have some doubt regarding the "/spare" and "/spare/lost+found"
directory in unix. Currently i am using SVR4 and i couldn't able to
figure out what these directories stands for???

This Problem arrived because i want to remove the "world writable
permission" from this directory so that an ordinary user couldn't able
to write into it.

Can anybody please tell me which kind of utilities are wrighting into
this directory???

Thanks

.
