I was asked to maintain a SQL server database in 6.5 from today . Alarmingly I found that The master database is
one Giga bytes in size with 995 MB free. I changed the default device from master to tempdb and tried to shrink the Master database.
I waited ,waited and waited but it is not shrinking ?. Any one know why and how can I solve this problem?

Thanks a lot for all your help.
