Problem installing ms java vm on windows 2000 sandeegk7713-May-05 7:29 sandeegk77 13-May-05 7:29  Hello, I have been trying to install the microsoft java vm on a windows 2000 machine. When i try to run the installation exe msjavax86.exe, it gives an error saying - it cannot update the virtual machine because it is a protected system component. However, when i run jview from the command prompt it says 'unrecognized command name' which means there is no installed version of the virtual machine. This is a windows 2000 sp4 machine with IE 6 sp 1. Any help is appreciated! Thanks Sandhya Re: Problem installing ms java vm on windows 2000 Mekong River14-May-05 4:00 Mekong River 14-May-05 4:00  I think this article[^] might give you some answer.

I did go through that article.. It recommended installing an earlier version of the jvm. But i tried with 3805/3809/3810... all gave the same error - The Microsoft virtual machine you are attempting to install is a protected system component and can only be updated with a later release of the operating system or service pack. Any ideas??? Thanks again for ur help... Sandhya Setting up a small business with MS software Anonymous13-May-05 0:42 Anonymous 13-May-05 0:42  I want to set up two client PCs both having the basic Office software. Is there any benefit to having an additional machine as a server? Is there a cheaper option for buying Office for two clients? Thanks for any help Re: Setting up a small business with MS software NeverHeardOfMe13-May-05 0:55 NeverHeardOfMe 13-May-05 0:55  You might want to consider a Microsoft Action Pack subscription - part of their Partner Program (go their website and type 'Action Pack' in their Search.) For about £180p/a you will get all the software you need to run a small business (Office Pro, SQLServer - in fact, all their Server s/w and OS's, and small-business orientated s/w, all kept up-to-date with new releases, for as long as you keep your subscription up. cheers Phil Re: Setting up a small business with MS software Trollslayer21-May-05 21:54 Trollslayer 21-May-05 21:54  Phil, it's worth pointing out that you aren't buying the software but renting it - stop the subscription and you are supposed to remove the software from your PCs. Elaine The tigress is here Re: Setting up a small business with MS software NeverHeardOfMe22-May-05 21:27 NeverHeardOfMe 22-May-05 21:27  Well, yes, indeed - sorry I hadn't made that clearer. I would be interested to hear what others think; whether they think this is a good deal or not. For any small business that is confident of staying in business long-term, it seems to me to be quite good.... Pity MS can't be persuaded to include VS into the bargain! cheers Phil Removing ToolBand in a Folder's View Member 195742712-May-05 0:19 Member 1957427 12-May-05 0:19  Hi, I need to remove the toolband (ie the back/forward/home buttons etc) from a view of a folder under XP to prevent users moving back up to the root of c:. Desktop.ini appears to provide some functionality but doesn't go quite far enough, anybody any thought as to how I could achieve this? thanks Re: Removing ToolBand in a Folder's View Mekong River13-May-05 1:39 Mekong River 13-May-05 1:39  Graeme99 wrote: Hi, I need to remove the toolband (ie the back/forward/home buttons etc) from a view of a folder under XP to prevent users moving back up to the root of c:. In my opinion, I think this is no a logic way to block the user from accessing drive C:. If you are using windows xp professional which format with an NTFS partition, you can use the folder level security to prevent the user to access the drive or folder that you want to restrict. Try to read this[^] article from Microsoft about managing file and folder level security. Remember, set up a wrong file or folder permission will cause you a problem. If you have a lap machine, try to test it first before implement this technique with the real machine. Good luck A thousand mile of journey, begin with the first step. APO-CEDC Save Children Norway-Cambodia Office installshield br_aguilar11-May-05 9:05 br_aguilar 11-May-05 9:05  I was just wondering what the script would be for determining what version of the xp os an end user is using Re: installshield Mekong River12-May-05 19:34 Mekong River 12-May-05 19:34  It doesn't need any special script. Just go to command prompt and type the comand ver then it will display the operating system version. But if you want to integrated it with the setup process, i think you should output the result to any text file and let the setup process analyse it.

You should be able to declare the API and call it from InstallScript, but if for some reason you cannot, create a DLL in C++ that determines the info and call your cuistom DLL from InstallScript. Robert Windows 2003 Load Balancing Software Albert Pascual11-May-05 6:02 Albert Pascual 11-May-05 6:02  Have to add some Load Balancing to IIS so if an IIS server goes down the web app still works. Now, if I add a Load Balancing computer in front of those 2 machines, what happens when the Load Balance goes down? Thanks Al Re: Windows 2003 Load Balancing Software Mike Dimmick11-May-05 23:28 Mike Dimmick 11-May-05 23:28  The Windows Load Balancing service is a multimaster system - there is no single front-end. See the Network Load Balancing FAQ[^]. If you have separate front-end hardware that performs load balancing, see that product's documentation. Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder Re: Windows 2003 Load Balancing Software Albert Pascual12-May-05 5:33 Albert Pascual 12-May-05 5:33  Mike, First, thanks so much for the reply. Still I had this issue after reading the FAQ. To create a cluster you need an unique IP where all IIS requests go. Then from there, they get distributed to different computers. What happens when the first IP computer where all requests go dies? Thanks Al Re: Windows 2003 Load Balancing Software Mike Dimmick12-May-05 7:29 Mike Dimmick 12-May-05 7:29  The unique IP address is shared among all computers in the load-balancing cluster. IIRC, they fake a MAC address for the cluster and program their network cards to recognise that MAC address as also being valid. When an ARP request comes in for the shared IP address, at least one computer will respond with the cluster MAC address - the sender on the local segment then sends packets for the shared IP to that MAC address. All the servers will therefore receive it. By the use of the heartbeat packets, the servers partition the space of request addresses between them. Only the server which is responsible for that requester will have the Load Balancing driver pass the incoming packet to the application - the other servers will simply discard it. The partitioning is self-tuning. Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder Re: Windows 2003 Load Balancing Software Albert Pascual13-May-05 5:35 Albert Pascual 13-May-05 5:35  Now makes lots of sense, and that's what I want. Do you have a good doc for installation? Cheers Al Re: Windows 2003 Load Balancing Software Albert Pascual13-May-05 13:17 Albert Pascual 13-May-05 13:17  Mike, That work very well, so when a computer goes down the other one takes over!! Awesome. However what about when IIS goes down? The packats still arriving to the computer with a IIS down and displaying a NO PAGE FOUND. Any way to check if a service is up and if its not taking it out of the cluster?

I have located several VBScripts to add users, groups just stuff like that. I want to create this for our school and to other schools that this would really benifit.

I'm developing a security application under Windows xp and I want it to run at the very beginning of the startup, before any other application starts. Is there any easy way to do it? Thank you very much. JaVinci. Re: Start application before Windows startup K Baruah11-May-05 1:55 K Baruah 11-May-05 1:55  Hi A simple way is to make a Installer of the application with the option of putting the application in the StartUp folder under windowsXP Otherwise,If you have a very good knowledge of Windows Registry,(make sure to have registry Backup before editing it)then you can add the add a new startup application using the following Open your registry and find the key [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]. For your Program to run,create a new string value and set the value of the string to the program executable. For example, to automatically start Microsoft Paint, add a new entry of "Paint"="c:\windows\mspaint.exe".
