Thanks Mike,

This is a very good article, but unfotunatly doesen't answer my
question: why I have *.xls files cloging my hard drive in the temp
directory for the indexing service (and ONLY excel files). All other
paths for the service are pointing to other drives. Hmmm, I suppose for
some odd reason it is not cleaning up after itself.

/Peter

Peter,

There's an article
(http://www.microsoft.com/Exchange/techinfo/deployment/2000/BestIndexing
.asp) that describes the file locations and functions. This should tell
you all you need to know. I ended up using a utility called Catutil to
move the index file locations off my C: drive altogether.

Subject: E2K full-text indexing

Hi,

I have 2 E2K sp1 w2k sp2 servers with full-text indexing enabled on the
private store. One of them went down the other day reporting c: drive
full. After some seaching we found 5 GB worth of Exel files in
c:\winnt\temp\gthrsvc. It is looks like when the indexing is running it
will make a copy of all exel files found in the store. Checked the other
server and it is the same. Deleting the files did not seems to have any
advers effect on the server but I'm not looking forward to delete them
manualy. The name of the files are the original name prepended by a hex
number, like A56Bmyoriginalfile.xls. I checked technet w/o any luck. Did
somebody see this problem?

TIA

/Peter
