Camarade_Tux Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 SFCFILES.DLL should go in APPREPLACEMENT, not in FIX.Afaik FIX takes already compressed files (SFCFILES.DL_).Btw, there's a typo here I think: http://www.vorck.com/hfexpert.html"Example 1 - SysInternal's Process Explorer, Renamed to TSKMGR.EXE"It should be renamed to tAskmgr.exe.

tommyp Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 There's more than one way to skin a cat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camarade_Tux Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 Hahein. ...what ? I understand but what are you speaking about exactly ?taskmgr, APPREPLACEMENT... ?For taskmgr, if I write tskmgr it doesn't work. And if put SFCFILES.DLL in FIX, I get both SFCFILES.DLL and SFCFILES.DL_ in i386. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommyp Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 Here's two things... skinning a cat & the file to put into FIX is sfcfiles.dl_. The FIX files are copied over at the end, overwriting anything that is in the sourcess\i386. The contents of the appreplacement gets fixed with the MODIFYPE.EXE program, is cabbed and then placed into the sourcess\i386 folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to overwrite any files, place the files in the FIX folder. Some possible modified files to place here include sfcos.dl_ or sfcfiles.dl_, or files like winnt.sif. You MUST NOT put a modified SYSOC.IN_ here!so i placed it in FIX ...& yes i downloaded compressed SFCFILES.DLL from http://www.vorck.com/data/SFCFILES.DL_Alternately, instead of hacking SFC_OS.DLL, you can leave it alone and use a version of SFCFILES.DLL that is empty. Download this new SFCFILES.DLL and put it in FIX.could there be a workaround for this?as for taskmanager, i renamed procexp.exe to taskmanager.exe as taskmanager.exe is what's present if verified in a regularly non-slipstreamed installed XP ... and then i did not rename procexp.chm anymore but just placed it in HFEXPERT\WIN\system32\procexp.chm Edited June 27, 2006 by Kiki Burgh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heisking Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 In the instructions for HFANSWER.INI it states:Set DELCATS to 0 if you want HFSLIP to silently keep .CAT files when modded SFC*.DLL files are detected.However if DELCATS is set to 0 then the .CAT files will be deleted as per this line in the SVCPACK subroutine of HFSLIP:IF DEFINED DELCATS IF EXIST SOURCESS\I386\SVCPACK\*.CAT DEL/Q/F SOURCESS\I386\SVCPACK\*.CAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiki Burgh Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 (edited) hi!i was just wondering if this "updated" update http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/...n/ms06-025.mspx is already taken cared of in our previous test releases, or even in our final version?thanks!EDIT: my apologies ... might have posted this incorrectly ... i'll be posting this concern in 2K/XP/2K3 updates Edited June 29, 2006 by Kiki Burgh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tain Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 @TC: Why is the HFSLIP test release published as a .7-zip? It looks like all of your other files, including the final HFSLIP, are standard .zips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcat76 Posted July 2, 2006 Author Share Posted July 2, 2006 Just for the record... HFSLIP is TommyP's. He wants it in a ZIP so I'm keeping it a ZIP. The test versions are in 7z format to keep the file size down (and ultimately the bandwidth on my server). The test versions of other files used to be in 7-zip format too until I realized that ZIP does better for ultra small files, so they're now distributed as ZIPs.

tain Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 (edited) Sorry, wasn't trying to imply that tommyp didn't still drive this project. I was just curious about the formats since they didn't seem consistent...and I can't install 7-zip on my workstation at work. I can help out with the hosting if you like. I have way more bandwidth than I know what to do with. Edited July 2, 2006 by TAiN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcat76 Posted July 2, 2006 Author Share Posted July 2, 2006 WinRAR can extract 7-zip files and I suppose some other major compression programs can too.The offer is nice but the frequency at which some versions are released wouldn't make it worth the hassle. I'll use ZIP for the test releases for a while and see how things go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
