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?

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:.
