SOLVED. Re: Access VBA generate .accde Member 1198835422-Sep-15 0:55 Member 11988354 22-Sep-15 0:55  Thanks, it was a stupid mistake when compiling the application. Now everything works perfectly. Dedicating a Machine to a NAT Richard Andrew x642-Sep-15 9:08 Richard Andrew x64 2-Sep-15 9:08  Has anyone here created a network router out of an old XP machine? I've found some posts about how to do it, but before I start, I wanted to ask for recommendations. Would I be better off installing Linux for this project, or can I find good NAT software for XP? The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer. Re: Dedicating a Machine to a NAT kdaras24-Sep-15 2:13 kdaras 24-Sep-15 2:13  Hi for Xp you can use http://forum.codecall.net/topic/42782-how-to-set-up-nat-routing-on-windows-xp/[^] You can also install ipcop http://eternalblackzero.blogspot.gr/2008/10/how-to-do-natport-forwarding-on-ipcop.html[^] Re: Dedicating a Machine to a NAT Richard Andrew x6424-Sep-15 9:39 Richard Andrew x64 24-Sep-15 9:39  Thanks for those links!

Re: Dedicating a Machine to a NAT Albert Holguin18-Nov-15 5:01 Albert Holguin 18-Nov-15 5:01  NAT is super easy to setup in Linux (assuming you have a decent Linux and networking background). It's essentially already a capability built into the kernel, so you just have to configure it (no additional packages required). If it's an old machine, Linux can also make better use of available resources (i.e. not a resource hog), of course, assuming you pick a Linux distro that doesn't use a lot of resources (i.e. don't use Ubuntu w/ Unity, perhaps with MATE).

I have an old broken machine that struggled with XP, installed Ubuntu server (by taking the hard disk out and putting it in another machine!) Runs apache and a few other things just fine. It's the GUI that hurts. I manage it remotely (ssh) of course. Cheers, Peter Software rusts. Simon Stephenson, ca 1994.

Xfce, MATE... so you don't necessarily have to give up the GUI to get decent performance out of an old computer. Unity on the other hand... that thing is horrible if you don't have good hardware.

I've tried using /silent and /very silent switch to hide the installation box, but so far keeps coming out. Also, is there any way to bypass the UAC from prompting the logged in user to allow installation to continue? Finally, how can I copy the configuration of an already installed ultravnc to future installations? Thanks in advance thanks _______________________ tips & tutorials.... http://www.pcteckonline.org Re: best way to deploy ultravnc kdaras23-Sep-15 23:53 kdaras 23-Sep-15 23:53  Hi you can use http://portableapps.com/node/2031[^] ultravnc portable .

Windows 10 on my Laptop Richard Andrew x6421-Jul-15 11:19 Richard Andrew x64 21-Jul-15 11:19  If I perform the upgrade from 8.1 to 10 on my laptop, does that overwrite the recovery partition so that I wouldn't be able to restore the laptop to 8 if I needed to? I wouldn't mind this except for the fact that the original recovery includes all the right drivers and system utilities which I wouldn't want to lose.

Re: Windows 10 on my Laptop PIEBALDconsult21-Jul-15 11:35 PIEBALDconsult 21-Jul-15 11:35  How would the Win10 install know what that partition is? It should leave it alone. (But then, I never "upgrade", I only start fresh. And I never buy off-the-shelf systems.)

Something that will prevent users from naming files/folders on the network and display a message to them. Renaming files/folders is not what I'm looking for. The problem currently is resolved, I'm trying to avoid this from happening in the future. Thank you Re: Prevent users from creating long paths Richard MacCutchan18-Jul-15 20:57 Richard MacCutchan 18-Jul-15 20:57  Unless you take control of all your users you cannot change it. However you can use the special path format as described in https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/windows/desktop/aa365247(v=vs.85).aspx#maxpath[^]. TCPView Showing alot of Process which I am not running AmbiguousName1-Jul-15 18:41 AmbiguousName 1-Jul-15 18:41  Hello guys. I am running TCPView to show all the processes and their ports. It is showing alot of skype and other processes ( and their ports ), while I am running only one instance of it. Some processes are absolutely not running but still showing in TCPView. Why is it so? This world is going to explode due to international politics, SOON. Re: TCPView Showing alot of Process which I am not running Jochen Arndt1-Jul-15 21:46 Jochen Arndt 1-Jul-15 21:46  1. Each process can open multiple sockets which will show up on multiple lines. 2. A process is not only a program started by you. There are also processes started by the system (e.g. services and processes started upon boot, logon, or by scheduling) and processes started by others.

I did something dumb (SBS 2011) TenmanS1430-Jun-15 0:39 TenmanS14 30-Jun-15 0:39  VSS wasn't starting properly and SQL backups were going astray, did the usual checks and noticed that the OS partition that it was sitting on wasn't active, so without thinking I just made it active, (DELL server with a small partition marked RECOVERY that should be the active one), soon as I did it, I looked at it properly and beat my head against the desk, question is, if I just remark the RECOVERY partition as active, should that then solve it again or am I going to have to mess about with diskpart next time I reboot the damn thing? Re: I did something dumb (SBS 2011) TenmanS1410-Aug-15 2:43 TenmanS14 10-Aug-15 2:43  For anyone interested, just marking the partition as active again solved it... came straight back up on a reboot... It will be converted as an IUnknown-derived interface [solved] Eddy Vluggen21-Jun-15 23:00 Eddy Vluggen 21-Jun-15 23:00  I am trying to eliminate all compiler-warnings of a given project. I'm stuck with the warning below; Processing COM reference "AXDBLib" from path "(somepath)axdb20enu.tlb". Interface 'IAcadShadowDisplay' is marked as [dual], but does not derive from IDispatch. It will be converted as an IUnknown-derived interface. Ideally, I would like to understand how to rectify it, but if that is not possible, I'd like to surpress it. Anyone familiar with a similar message? --edit; MSB3305 cannot be suppressed, as it is not a compiler warning. It can be suppressed by editing the project file though.
