sharepoint log file huge on 2008 SBS server

You can "Safely" delete the sharepint logfile (if you know they are not using Sharepoint).



This log file can grow huge if a novice person set it up.



If they are using a sharepint server I can tell you how to shrink this long file using the SSMS.

I don't know 100% that they are not using SharePoint but I know they were not using it when I set up the server initially a few years ago.  If I failed to mention I hate SBS, let me mention it now :)

To be safe, can you send me instructions to reduce log properly and then I will disable sharepoint and wait for them to complain that some feature they were using is not working.

Thanks

Hi,
do they use companyweb? Then they use Sharepoint.
What log file? A database (SQL server) log file (ldf) or text log files under  the Sharepoint hive?

The full name of the file is:  

SharePoint_Config_29c26fca-17b8-48c1-9704-b869932abcb6_log.LDF

It is in C:\Windows\SYSMSI\SSEE\MSSQL.2005\MSSQL\Data

If I look at the SBS COMPANYWEB, there are no SHARED DOCUMENTS, no ARCHIVED EMAILS.  In fact if I click on VIEW ALL SITE CONTENT, it lists the default containers and the last modified date is 4 years ago for every folder and item count is zero.  I suspect this is pretty good confirmation they are not using it, correct ?

That said, if possible would be best to shrink properly ?  Keep in mind I have very limited C space if a work area is required on C.  D drive has about 40 GB free and more if I need it

Thanks in advance !
