I have to believe that people do not gauge merit in a logical discussion on something as inane as a 'childish' abbreviation. If your professor farts during a speech, it is still childish, hilarious, and he is still well researched and his points no more devalued. I feel M$ is an effective abbreviation as it reduces a 9 character symbol to 2 and is clearly understood by all parties I also agree that it expresses an opinion, I however think calling my opinion 'childish' goes against rule 7.b Not that I care, im just a sucker for technicalities. I am only attempting to return to the community that i learned so much from.

the 360 network test succeeded? have you pulled down any updates or are you able to? have you tried a third party xbox360 browser?

If you are publishing a website and you expect to have public traffic, you most certainly would want a static (or ddns). If you ask nicely some vendors will set your lease to many days/weeks so that you can test from the outside before you pay for a different class of service.

An outlook server and Proxy can be established behind the wall. Though, serving yourself email seems fruitless unless you are going to be testing filters or apps like barracuda. The web server might offer more games to play, but throttling yourself is only enjoyable for like a minute. imho.

I dont suppose it is important really when you can adjust the clock yourself, but even our daylight savings time changes every year. I dont know if M$ has them already forecasted in previous versions, but you could check yours against these dates. 2007: March 11 - Nov. 4 2008: March 9 - Nov. 2 2009: March 8 - Nov. 1 2010: March 14 - Nov. 7 2011: March 13 - Nov. 6

the way i understand it, it just updates the rules. So things like Venezuela moving themselves 30 minutes into the past so Chavez can give "a more fair distribution of the sunrise", will be modified. In that thinking it would not go obsolete until the next calendar update. As well it says this KB will throw a handled error if it is already present. Note When you apply this update, you may receive the following message: Update cannot be installed as a newer or same time zone update has already been installed on the system. This message indicates that you have already applied the correct update or that Windows Updates or Microsoft Update has automatically installed this update. No additional action is required to update the Windows operating system software.

Are you sure its not the location they are being shared from? Maybe sharing them off a different partition to see if its an attribute being propagated down. Any kind of file sharing off the primary domain controller is sketchy practices anyway. Why not use a client to act as a repository, if there is no dedicated file server?

shell32.dll probably starting at dialog 29952 for what i imagine you would like to accomplish.

class a, b, and c. if you need over 254 objects you would use a class b private range, if you needed more than a million you would use a class a? http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1918 I would think that you read more than 500 objects on a segment if you are talking dividing with a router, and i wouldnt go over 50 without dropping at least a switch. I have never seen a recommendation for another 'network', or am even sure i completely understand what you mean by that.

Maybe not exactly the same, but this is how i disallow them. 3 files the .reg the .adm and the batch to run them and deny the users group the right to the usbstor files. usbstore.reg --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\USBSTOR] "Start"=dword:00000004 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- usbstore.adm ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS MACHINE CATEGORY USB STORAGE POLICY USB STORAGE DEVICES KEYNAME "SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\USBSTOR" EXPLAIN This policy allows the disabling of USB storage devices PART "Startup Type" DROPDOWNLIST REQUIRED VALUENAME "Start" ITEMLIST NAME "Disabled" VALUE NUMERIC 4 END ITEMLIST END PART END POLICY END CATEGORY ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- usbblock.bat ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ @echo off Echo.

while in any folder in explorer hold down alt press f release press w release press f release as quickly as you can press those three in sequence while holding alt will create a new folder.

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.p...ckage_id=171760 xchm has a win32 release, dont know if it works on 98.

tortoise is good stuff and the prettiest of the lot. I also use SlikSvn - it only offers command line support, but for build scripts its reliable and quick (at least it has been so far).

you can reshack winlogon.exe at least for modifying those strings. I do not know if removing the text removes the dialog box, but I am sure you could color one transparent in paint.net and replace it.

You get to play with the bits that are 'off', regardless of configuration. So in 255.255.214.0 (11010110=214) pick any IP - we will go with 192.168.134.240 - I want to know what other IPs I could talk to Knowns: 255=must have 192 in the 1st octet 255=must have 168 in the 2nd octet 214=???? 0=can have any number 1-254 (0 if its not the network) in the 4th octet. 3rd octet of IPAddress= 134 = 10000110 3rd octet of subnet = 214 = 11010110 everything above a one is locked (bits 2,3 and 8 are locked in the on, bits 5 and 7 in the off) so modifying the remaining bits you get the following options for the third octet 134=10000110 135=10000111 142=10001110 143=10001111 166=10100110 167=10100111 174=10101110 175=10101111 so [192].[168].[any from the list].[1-254] would work for the subnet 255.255.214.0 imho

you didnt even google "Windows has blocked some startup programs" http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vis...ograms-balloon/

think of 255.255.255.0 = 11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000 all the bits that are 'on' have to be identical - (which is why in the 255 examples the numbers must be exactly the same as all bits are on) Think of it like so: My home network has a subnet of 255.255.255.248 to allow for only 5 network devices (not counting the router at .1) 11111000=248 so regardless of what my IP is everything above the 1s must be the same, so lets take your example 192.168.2.1 192.168.2 must all be the same because 255 is all 1s. so we will isolate the subnet .248 1=00000001 248=11111000 so the first 5 bits are locked in just like the 192.168.2 was. Leaving us the last 3 to play with. 00000000=all 0s network address - unusable 00000001=router 00000010=2 00000011=3 00000100=4 00000101=5 00000110=6 00000111=broadcast address - unusable same subnet of .248 with a more complex final IP octet like .166 and determining the available IPs in the network 10100000=network address 10100001=161 10100010=162 10100011=163 10100100=164 10100101=165 10100110=166 10100111=167=broadcast

welcome to subnetting 101. 10.x.x.x. default subnet 255.0.0.0 192.168.x.x default subnet 255.255.255.0 short but sweet, everything above the 255s has to be the same. So in your 192 scenario whatever you place in third octet has to be the same on all boxes in your network. or drop to a class b subnet (255.255.0.0) on your boxes and use 192.168.xxx.xxx

http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/__data/assets/pd...-hires-2-16.pdf Dell EMC will failover disks as well as processor paths, not that I am pro any particular label (I think powerpath is the utility that manages that stuff on the san). Sending the request to a bunch of vendors and playing them off each other is probably an ideal route. Certainly make them quote some custom prices with just the bare bones pieces you need, if they cant do that then you need a new sales person, or vendor.

First, Nlite is toit, but I think a full commercial release of this tool in its current state would do more harm for its name than good. Not to be too terribly antagonistic. But the last time I diffed my files between my manual load and my Nlite load the discrepancies were far too great, and many seemingly unneeded, to even consider using it for redistributable purposes or commercial deployment. Especially if your load is subject to any kind of configuration management. The hotfix integration worked clean, but I dont know how lively the market is for M$ hotfix integrators. Again, I <3 Nlite.

I fully realize you are attempting to troubleshoot Nlite, cant help there. however as a quick remedy to (re)set the following keys from the runonce portion of the install. build a file with the following entries and call it via command 'regedit /s filename.reg' HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon Defaultusername=user Defaultpassword=****** AltDefaultUserName=user AutoAdminLogon=1

You can right click on any shortcut you make and specify a shortcut key. I have not found how you can overwrite system shortcut keys (like in xp ctrl+shift+esc opens taskmanager, regardless of what I have specified that is the only key combo that functions in that manner). i use ctrl+shift+D for auslogics disk defrag created in that manner.

they are folders on pipes - (indicating a network share) which is of no consequence (because you can change the icon to whatever you want). Were you able to change the name? double click - my computer - Right click the drive and go to sharing and security, you should see the share name that you are not fond of.

when you right click my computer and select explore - You are seeing the mountpoints when you type \\videobruce into an explorer window - you are seeing a network view of your system and what shares are available. You see how they are folders and not drives? You can right click and rename those folders whatever you want.

arent those just the network share names in \\videobruce window? you should be able to right click and name them whatever you want.
