HI, We need a clarification in regards to debugging a device driver in a remote/foreign machine. We use NULL MODEM CABLE to connect the COM ports of the two machines that run in WinXP. We have checked the NULL MODEM CABLE using 'HYPER TERMINAL' application. We use "WinDbg" to debug the drivers. The procedure we followed: 1. hve modified the 'boot.ini' in the target machine (where driver is installed). 2. In host machine windbg is initiated with windbg -k option.(also the symbol path and source path are set) 3. as the target machine is rebooted , the host machine is not recognising ..also there is not indication that the target machine is ready to communicate with the host. any suggestion with diagrams/snapshots for the setup will be very helpful. Thanks and best regards, Ootsoo

Hi. Reference to MSDN under the topic pipes/Anonymous Pipe/Pipe Handle Inheritance The following are the steps mentioned for redirecting the standard output handle to the child process 1.Call the GetStdHandle function to get the current standard output handle 2.Call the SetStdHandle function to set the standard output handle to the write handle to the pipe. 3.Create the child process 4.Call the CloseHandle function to close the write handle to the pipe. 5.Call SetStdHandle to restore the original standard output handle My Question is whether there will be any impact in the parent process when the restoring of the original handle is not done. Please reply back. its urgent. Moreover, the GetStdHandle() API in the step (1) is returning INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE. When does this API returns INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE. When GetLastError is called it returns 6 (invalid handle). Is there any scenario or condition in which this API return INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE. Thanks in advance

A lady in a faded grey dress and her husband, dressed in a homespun! suit, stepped off the train in Boston and walk timidly without an appointment into the Harvard University President's outer office. The secretary could tell in a moment that such backwoods, country hicks had no business at Harvard and probably didn't even deserve to be in Harvard. "We want to see the President," the man said softly. "He'll be busy all day," the secretary snapped. "We'll wait," the lady replied. For hours the secretary ignored them, hoping that the couple would finally become discouraged and go away. They didn't and the secretary grew frustrated and finally decided to disturb the president." Maybe if you see them for a few minutes, they'll leave," she said to him. The President, stern faced and with dignity, strutted toward the couple. The lady told him, "We had a son who attended Harvard for one year. He loved Harvard. He was happy here. But about a year ago, he was accidentally killed. My husband and I would like to erect a memorial to him, somewhere on campus." The president wasn't touched.... He was shocked. "Madam," he said, gruffly, "we can't put up a statue for every person who attended Harvard and died. If we did, this place would look like a cemetery." "Oh, no," the lady explained quickly. "We don't want to erect a statue. We thought we would like to give a building to Harvard." The president rolled his eyes. He glanced at the gingham dress and homespun suit, and then exclaimed, "A building! Do you have any earthly idea how much a building costs? We have over seven and a half million dollars in the physical buildings here at Harvard." For a moment the lady was silent. The president was pleased. Maybe he! could get rid of them now. The lady turned to her husband and said quietly, "Is that all it costs to start a university? Why don't we just start our own?" Her husband nodded. The president's face wilted in confusion and bewilderment. Mr. and Mrs. Leland Stanford got up and walked away, traveling to Palo Alto, California where they established the University that bears their name, Stanford University, a memorial to a son that Harvard no longer cared about. Most of the time we judge people by their outer appearance, which can be misleading. And in this impression only we tend to treat people badly by thinking they can do nothing for us thus we tend to loose our potential good friends, employees or customers.

too cool... came really out of a sleepy lunch session after this joke... Oo

hi all, I have a group of separate/unique Shockwave Flash Object files. say a.sfo , b.sfo , c.sfo ... All these files were taken from temp internet files (folder). All of these files have the next button in them! Generally we use an application SA Flash player to open these files.Is there any way to mingle all these files into one file? such that on clicking next of a.sfo it shld load b.sfo from the local system itself!! plz resolve. regards, ootsoo

this s bit old one...but ok ... Hypothetical situation where 20 executives board an airplane and are told that the flight that they are about to take is the first-ever to feature pilotless technology: It is an uncrewed aircraft. Each one of the CEOs is then told, privately, that their company's software is running the aircraft's automatic pilot system. Nineteen of the CEOs promptly leave the aircraft, each offering a different type of excuse. One CEO alone remains on board the jet, seeming very calm indeed.Asked why he is so confident in this first uncrewed flight, he replies: "If it's the same software that runs my company's IT systems, this plane won't even take off." This is called Confidence!! ooTsoo :-)

Relax guys...... First-year students at Med School were receiving their first anatomy class with a real dead human body. They all gathered around the surgery table with the body covered with a white sheet. The professor started the class by telling them, "In medicine, it is necessary to have 2 important qualities as a doctor: The first is that you not be disgusted by anything involving the human body." For an example, the Professor pulled back the sheet, stuck his finger in the butt of the corpse, withdrew it and stuck it in his mouth. "Go ahead and do the same thing," he told his students. The students freaked out,hesitated for several minutes, but eventually took turns sticking a finger in the butt of the deadbody and licking on it. When everyone finished, the Professor looked at them and said, "The second most important quality is observation. I stuck in my middle finger and licked on my index finger. Now learn to pay attention..." ooTsoo

smells like an old news boss...

The boss of a big company needed to call one of his employees about an urgent problem with one of the main computers; he dialed the employee's home phone number and was greeted with a child's whisper..!! "Hello." "Is your daddy home?" he asked. "Yes," whispered the small voice. "May I talk with him?" The child whispered, "No." Surprised, and wanting to talk with an adult, the boss asked, is your Mommy there?" "Yes." "May I talk with her?" Again the small voice whispered, "No." Hoping there was somebody with whom he could leave a message, the boss asked, "Is anybody else there?" "Yes," whispered the child, "a policeman." Wondering what a cop would be doing at his employee's home, the boss asked, "May I speak with the policeman?" "No, he's busy", whispered the child. "Busy doing what?" "Talking to Daddy and Mommy and the Fireman", came the whispered answer. Growing concerned and even worried as he heard what sounded like a helicopter through the earpiece on the phone the boss asked, "What is that noise?" "A hello-copper" answered the whispering voice. "What is going on there?" asked the boss, now alarmed. In an awed whispering voice the child answered, "The search team just landed the hello-copper." Alarmed, concerned, and even more then just a little frustrated the boss asked, "What are they searching for?" Still whispering, the young voice replied along with a muffled giggle: "ME."!!

A taxi passenger tapped the driver on the shoulder to ask him a question. The driver screamed, lost control of the car, nearly hit a bus, went up on the footpath, and stopped centimeters from a shop window. For a second everything went quiet in the cab, then the driver said: "Look mate, don't ever do that again. You scared the daylights out of me!". The passenger apologized and said, "I didn't realize that a little tap would scare you so much." The driver replied, "Sorry, it's not really your fault. Today is my first day as a cab driver - I've been driving a van carrying dead Bodies for the last 25 years OotSoo
