how to shrink the size of tempdb other than reboot the server

Hi,
I work with sql server 2000.
Wondering what's the best practice to shrink the size of
tempdb other than reboot the server. I don't want to
interrupt productions db running on the server.
JJtry dbcc shrinkdatabase, dbcc shrinkfile

You can reduce the tempdb size, BUT, if the tempdb was created with
( say ) 1000 MB initial size, 1000 MB is the smallest you can
shrink it to.
