I have lots of log files inside the c:\winnt\system32\logfiles
subdirectories.
My IIS is configured to create a log file each day.
Can I safely delete the old log files (let's say, more than 7 days ago) or
should I perform any specific procedure to purge them?
Regards
Marius

You can delete them, it won't break anything.

However, you might want to ZIP them and store them elsewhere just in case
you want to use them to produce reports later on. ZIPping them will normally
compress to a small percentage of the original size.
