Nope. How secure would it be if you could type your password in clear text on the command line?

No Dave - iam not giving it directly from command prompt. Iam calling the command in a VBS file thro my VC++ program.
IT works
Option explicit
dim oShell
set oShell= Wscript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
oShell.Run "runas /user:administrator ""PrintArt.exe"""
WScript.Sleep 100
'Replace the string yourpassword~ below with
'the password used on your system. Include tilde
oShell.Sendkeys "yourpassword~"
Wscript.Quit

How much do you want to bet you're not?
This has some problems because you're waiting 100 (0.1) seconds, then sending the keys. What if the window takes longer than that to show up?? You just typed your password into another window, possibly Notepad??  Nice...you just typed your password, in clear text, into a TextBox.

Why???? Why not just do the same thing in your VC++ app where you'll have much greater control?

That's a nasty hack for something that you should be able to code in about 30 minutes.

Nope. I haven't touched C++ in quite a while. But, the functions are in the Win32 library. You're looking for CreateProcess, probably FindWindow, SendMessage, maybe even WriteConsole.

Hi,
I setup two NICs on a machine. After the setup i tested both the cards and they were working fine.
I attempted to swap the properties of the connections and restarted the computer.
Now, the machine is not recognizing any of the Network connection. Also, the 'Network Connections' is not opening.
What might be the problem with the system? Any way to restore back to old configuration?
Will be grateful if anyone can help me in this issue.
Thanks in advance,
Murali

What version of windows are you using? Xp,Vista?

Did you make a backup before you did this? If you are changing anything that is important to the configuration of windows then you would always want to make a backup of the configuration of windows using system restore, etc.
MuraliKumarD wrote: Any way to restore back to old configuration?
Yep, System restore. (But you have to of made a backup for this to work)
MuraliKumarD wrote: Also, the 'Network Connections' is not opening.
Most likely the NIC cards have been disabled.
To check whether windows can find the NIC cards Goto:
'Control panel'>> 'Add hardware'
'Add hardware wizard' opens, click next, and it will search for any new hardware (ie. the NIC Cards).
Have you searched on google for people that may have had the same problem?
This would be the first place I would look after Start>> 'help and support'.
Is 'Network connections' shown in the control panel?
In Windows XP:
The 'network connections' in the control panel is called
ncpa.cpl (the .cpl means it is a Control Panel extension, eg it is displayed in the control panel)
Hope this helps

Hey,
I am trying to write a program that will run on about 40 computers at my work to monitor the processes. The way I would like to do it is run a small program in the background that receives notifications events from the kernel every time a process is created or terminated and then reports the information to a server computer. I am able to handle the communication with the server fine, but the receive notification events is causing me a bit of trouble. I have been trying to use http://www.codeproject.com/threads/procmon.asp <-- this example to do just that but it does not always report the process name, sometimes only the process id. If anyone is able to give me an example that works or point me in the write direction would be great.
Thanks in advance

You will need to be running Windows 2000 Server or 2003 Server - the workstation products cannot run AD.

XP only supports IIS 5. You need Server 2003 for IIS 6.

Dear All, I'm an ASP.net developer so i donno if this is the right forum...
My problem is with my windows 2003 server
I donno if it's a virus but something is causeing the explorer.exe process to stop and start each 5 seconds
i updated the anti virus and scanned the drives but no viruses were found, maybe i need a windows update but as the explorer keeps restarting i can't open it from there so i would need a link to download the needed update from another pc and install it on the server
It's kinda urgent so i would appreciate quick response
Best Regards

Can you read the security/system/application log events? They might give you a better view on the problem.

i can't access anything 
it's 3 or 5 seconds till the next explorer restart so i can't get anywhere
Best Regards

I believe you can run Event Viewer from Safe Mode; try it and check the Application and System logs for clues.

Or, if you have another machine, you can connect the Manager (Right-click My Comptuer -> Manage) to the Win2K3 box and look at the event log that way.
