  Where the TCP/IP logs go depends on which TCP/IP implementation you're
running.  Many system logs go to SYSTEM's home directory,
sys$sysroot:[sysgmgr].  If you do a "purge *.log" there, that's a quick
way to free up some space in an emergency.  You're losing log data that
way, of course, so it's a last resort, but it could get you up and running.
