Kill it and see what app complains or which phone rings?
Netstat and see what is connecting to its port (or if i����s local host, then determine which process owns the other end of the connection). -sc From: Harry Singh [mailto:hbo...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 09, 2009 11:13 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Exchange and MSDE All - There is an MSDE instance on an Exchange box and i'm trying to figure out which application is actually writing to this instance. There aren't any SQL tools installed on the box, is there a way for me to determine who is writing to this MSDE database without installing the tools ? After running Perfwiz i noticed high-disk usage coming from the sqlserver instance and i need to know if MSDE is even necessary on this box at all. Best,
