resize /var

[Ted Potter]

Greetings,


a new IBM Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES (v.3 Update 3) X series machine
has the following partitions 

/dev/sda3   264 gig  /root
/dev/sda2     72 megs /boot
/dev/sda6   243 Megs /var

we ran out of space on /var running up2date. From what I understand I
think the /var partition is too small.

My questions are

1. Is it correct to state the /var partition is to small and we should
have something like 10 - 40 gigs

2. How do I or can I resize the /var partition.
