Flash Media Server Temp Files

Question

Hi all,

Maybe this topic has been asked and answered before. But I
have not found relevant information on this issue. So there it is:

I found out that when the FMS service is running, it creates
a lot of temporily files in the 
c:\windows	empdirectory (the files are created in the name
of 
mx_???.tmp where the ??? is hexadecimal value). I wonder is
there any way to configure this including changing the directory
and as well as set the number of tmp files where it can create.

Furthermore, there may be a bug whereby after the service is
manually stopped, the temporily fies are still being created by the

services.exe where i believe is caused by a unsucessfully
termination of thread(s). Please verify this.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hmm... I've never seen that one before. Are you 100% sure it's FMS writing those files? I looked into a number of my FMS servers (windows) after reading your post, and couldn't find any files like the ones you described. The only temp file I'm finding has to do with the Macromedia licensing service, but that's only one file on each machine (in the windows/temp dir).
