Could there be a real-time (file-level) virus-scanning service kicking in as
soon as they are created and preventing them being released for deletion by
the indexing service in time?

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.

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
