 | Hi All,
I am struggling to find a problem with my Windows 2000 Server, which also acts as the primary server for our network.
I notice that on the C: partition, I am down to 364 meg of available free space. While I was trying to find a way to free up some space, I found this file:
scepol.log
This file is 226 MEG by itself. And I don't know what it is doing, or why it is there.
Is this something I can delete safely? What is it? Why is it there?
Also, if anyone can recommend any OTHER .log files I can safely delete, please let me know.
Thank-you so much,
-- David Reed Nework Administrator dreed@no.spam.please.srdcorp.com

 | Hi Cleve,
I followed the Hotfix and was able to delete that file afterward. That brought back 230 meg.
Afterward I also ran Disk Cleanup, which got me back another 550 meg (believe it or not).
So after I was all done, I got back just shy of 800 meg, for a total of about 1.1 or 1.2 gig of my 4.0 gig boot partition.
MUCH nicer. :-)
Thanks very much!
David
