i think for this you would need a static routes in place to be able to route the traffic between the 2 subnets as it were. What are the ip address's of your 2 computers? or the ranges you are working with at least?

sign up for a free account at www.logmein.com and you wont even need to know your ip address, or dydns address

1) Hard reset the router with a Pen 2) enable DHCP on your LAN connection 3) connect your pc to the router 4) view your assigned ip address but more importantly your default gateway in command prompt with ipconfig 5) connect to the default gateway address in your browser

yes, if you enable Internet connection sharing then your XP machine will perform NAT on all incoming connections

do you have a spare PCI network card? you could use that and a crossover cable to create a connection. if not what about running the app in virtual pc? as that would have a connection to your real pc

A video card driver update is allowed under the OEM license, just do it and call MS again they will activate it for you

thanks for the reply, i guess session restore is the way to go on this one. the problem i had was i had a document saved as a .htm file and every now and again when i open it up i have to find where i was on it before i can continue. cheers

Hi all, does anyone know of an extension for firefox that can remember a position on a webpage please? or bookmark my position on a webpage? many thanks

i have an Amiga 500 with a 20mb horizontal external hard disk and it still works perfect, it must be over 20 years old now, so i dont believe gravity has an effect at all on hard disks

i would not recommend it, to run a web server safely you need a DMZ and a dedicated box, it would be cheaper and safer to buy hosting

have you added the secondary DNS in, under scope options of the dhcp mmc?

its ok i got it, someone told me (and i quote) "The Directory.GetFiles() method has an overload that can accept a filter expression." so therefore the line of code i needed was simply For Each FileName As String In System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(folder, "*.avi")

sorry should have been more specific, i mean in the properties of the LAN connection the firtst dns server should be itself and the alternative should be the second server

does the first server have the second one specified as an alternative dns server?

the images are not bootable nor can you just point at them from Dos. you will need to create a bootable floppy that contains drivers for a your network card, network support, domain logon support and possibly a mouse depending on that version of ghost and then once booted up map a drive to your ghost share eg \\server\ghost and then point ghost to the image. not really very easy. I would suggest using Icemans method, it is much simpler

take out the old hard disk for now and any other peripherals and see if you still have problems installing it

Hi all, i have been working on a small program that scans a directory and does the following 1) creates a table in an access database by the same name as each subdirectory of the path 2)eventually it will populate these tables with the files contained in the db, but thats were i need some help see code below Dim con As New OleDb.OleDbConnection 'create variable called con that connects to a DB 'Dim ds As New DataSet 'create a variable called ds that is the dataset Dim VarAddTable As String 'Create Variable called VarAddTable Dim VarAddRecord As String con.ConnectionString = "PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source = c:\Videos.mdb" 'use the con variable to connect to a database file con.Open() 'open a connection to the database 'scan first directory For Each folder As String In IO.Directory.GetDirectories(txtdirectory1.Text) VarAddTable = IO.Path.GetFileName(folder) Dim objCommand As New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand("CREATE TABLE [" & VarAddTable & "] (field1 Text(25) null, field2 long not null)", con) objCommand.ExecuteNonQuery() 'execute the objcommand Variable 'scan within each directory For Each FileName As String In System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(folder, FileIO.SearchOption.SearchAllSubDirectories, "*.avi") VarAddRecord = System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(FileName) MsgBox(" the file name is" & VarAddRecord) Next FileName Next folder 'end of scanning dirs and files con.Close() MsgBox("the connection is closed and your tables should have been created") End Sub End Class i know it doesnt work but thats why i left it like that, i hope you can see how im thinking from this. the FileIO.searchallsubdirectories part doesnt work, but as you can see i need to be able to search the path in folder for *.avi so i can then move on to doing something with it. for now though any subfiles it finds are just shown in a message box can anyone help please? thank you

ah i see, i only wanted to do one level of folders, but thanks for the help though, much appreciated

thanks jcarle i got this code which also works For Each folder As String In IO.Directory.GetDirectories(txtDirectory.Text) MessageBox.Show(IO.Path.GetFileName(folder)) Next folder which one is better in your opinion? and why? thank you

Hi all, does anyone have a proper tcpip.sys file that is patched for XP X64 edition, iv tried a few but they are not working, my download speeds still suck lol. thank you EDIT: either that, or does anyone know if the values in the file that you need to change are the same as with the X86 version?

Hi all, i recently started building a project i have wanted to do for a long time, i dived into Vb .NET 2005 and im loving it, but i need some help if anyone has any experience with it. im trying to specify a directory (which i can do) and then have it look at each sub directory in turn and return the name of that directory eg. m:\test should return "test" files have a .fullname property, but im not sure if directories do? i think i need a for each loop, but im not sure. if i can just make it pop each subdirectories name up a in a msgbox for now that would be great, then il move onto to doing more with it. thanks

are you trying to RDP to the server by name or ip at the point your vpn is connected?

u really think these users would be happy to go to vista? 1) they wont have great hardware so it will be slow 2) its different - scary for users 3) their programs may not run properly on it im sure there are more reasons why not to move them all to vista.

wow that is difficult, my advice would be to do this in a phased approach, split the machines into 5's or something and do them a few at a time and give them time to use them and find errors. Identify problems as you go along and build the fixes into the next lot you roll out. It may take a while but it will work hope it helps

hmm i never thought of that lol, il give it a try and see if i like it cheers
