Does anyone know if you turn off Circular Logging on a W2k DC, I know you can do it in e2k but it is enabled by default on a w2k dc and I cannot find any information on how to disable it

This ought to fix you up:
Start regedt32.
Go to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NTDS\Parameters Registry entry.
If the value CircularLogging doesn?t exist, select New, String value from the Edit menu and enter
CircularLogging
Double-click CircularLogging, and set the value to 1 to enable circular logging. (Setting the value to 0 disables circular logging and enables sequential log files).
Close the Registry editor.
Reboot the machine to restart the DirectoryService (DS) and make the change effective.
