Windows server 2006 fills up the disk

[Guest Linda]

I have a problem with both my 2003 Server which is located in different

networks an on different machines.

I used disc C for win server 2003 alone, but after son times it filles up

the dedicated 10 GB on disc C anf I get the message very low discspace on C.

I can se tthat the windowsdir grows in size, but I cannot find any large dir

of file in winDir. The sum og all dir is just 4-5 GB, but the disk og 10 Gig

is full.

The windows cleanutility does noe find any tmp files and son.

Does anyone know what the problem is?

Thanks for help

10 GBytes for a Windows 2003 server partition is too small.

No matter what you do, you will keep on running out of disk

space. Copy it to a 20 GByte partition as soon as you can.

Perhaps your pagefile.sys? Also I agree with Pegasus. 10GB is way to small

for W2K3. 20GB is good but you can also get away with 16GB for C:.
