I have a few clients that are printing to a printer on a different client's
pc.
Why does the SBS2K server spool these files thru C:\temp on the server?
This directory gets quite large at times and now it has over 15 mb with
about 10 days of files.
It does not delete them after they are printed and it won't let me delete
them either, except at certain times. I haven't figured what these times
represent, but it may be related to if the client is logged on.
This client is not connecting thru a share on the server, but straight to
the other clients pc.
How do I move this spool directory to another drive? I can't find any
reference to the spool directory.
Any ideas?

This question must be a real issue. I have asked it before with no response
either.
Just thought I would respond to my own post and maybe inspire someone else
to read.
How do I move the SBS2K printer spool to another drive?

I see you are making progress on a few fronts. You moved your Exchange
successfully also. Congrads.

You are not kidding....
I was working ariound a lot of problems related to low disk space on the c
drive for months.
I was limping along with 75-120MB free! (I was even thinking about tearing
down my raid to increase the containers.)
Don't know why I waitd so long...yea I do....fear of water where you can't
see the bottom.
Just a couple of permissions problems to set and done.
Now I have over1.9GB of free disk space. Like heaven.

Now I just have to figure out why my outside users, that use OE to get mail,
can't connect for mail. VPN down also. This happened after changeover to
new T1 provider which involved new router network changes.
Before changeover my nic to router was outside address (65.45.93.162). Now
it is inside (10.0.0.1) and is pointed out by the router. I still see a lot
of 65.45.93.162 addresses in my ISA policies section (POP3 IN, POP3 OUT,
SMTP IN, SMTP OUT,..etc). Some wizard I should run here, manual edit? I
tried an "allow alll mail policy" but it didn't work.
Intranet Exchange mail is working fine, and Internet mail to internal
Exchange is working also.

Just a few more hurdles...andI'll be done. Or ready for SBS3K.
