The easiest way to not output a log file is to redirect to /dev/null. I'm not sure of the best way to do this for the zone files (maybe a symbolic link to /dev/null?), but here is an example for the world server log that is made in your startup script:
Change
Code:
./persist_world 2>&1 > logs/world &
to
Code:
./persist_world 2>&1 > /dev/null &

Those are basically debug files. They are enabled with the -pg switch in the makefiles for eqlaunch & zone. I made brief mention of it in the Wiki, but at the time I wrote that part, I didn't know that's what created them. Basically, change the lines in eqlaunch/makefile and zone/makefile that begin with COPTS to remove the -pg.
