The W2k server (domain controller) wont allow any attempts
to login. There is a message saying that the eventlog is
full. Can't login in any failsafe mode. Started with CD
and entered rescue mode.

Is it possible to delete the .evt files directly in "DOS"-
mode or does it have to be doen with some tool?

Can the .evt files be renamed to avoid the problem?
