RE: Server Losing Hard Disk Space

["Erick Jensen" <ejensen () vibrant com>]

Check your log files.  I've seen servers get carried away on log entries
and go up to 10+gigs.  Maybe somebody is trying and failing to login or
some other attack that is filling up the logs.  Export them out and back
them up, then see if it happens again.

Subject: Server Losing Hard Disk Space

I have a win2k which has been steadily losing disk space for the last
few days at a rate of half a gig a day or more. Can anyone point me in
the direction of a tool that will allow me to see which files have
increased in size between determined intervals? Any help is
appreciated...
