Sounds like Exchange might not be getting backed up at night? Also, there IS 
another drive other than C: right? As a rule I have servers with no less than 2 
logical drives and all the transation/temp files go somewhere other than the 
system drive...

Subject: SBS 2003 Server and growing temp files

helping out on this server for someone, i have full access to it remotely.

The C: drive is filling up to the point where it just runs out of space.. takes 
about 24-36 hours for it to happen between reboots.
I come to find out it's these large tmp files in C:\windows\Temp. Some of the 
file names are DST199.tmp, DST146.tmp, DST15A.tmp.. etc...
Last week they were each half a GB in size.. after the latest reboot. they are 
now 1GB in size. I'd say the rate the last i checked was about 2MB every 
second. Once the tmp file gets to a 1GB it makes a new one.
I run process monitor and learn that it's store.exe that is involved.
If i restart the SMTP service.. nothing happens/changes. they continue to grow.
If i run IISRESET, then the log files disappear.. but will eventually start to 
come back.


any ideas?
