temp directory in \winnt\system32

I noticed for the first time there is
a temp directory in the \winnt\system32
directory.

For a web services application, this caused
me grief as when the server c: drive
filled up, the temp directory couldn't
hold the necessary temp files for the application.

Is there a feature in dotnet to configure this
temp area so that I could point it to my
larger d: drive?

John,

larger d: drive?


Can't you just change your TEMP and TMP environment variables?
